NASA recently shared an image of gorgeous open star cluster captured by Hubble. The cluster is located over 160,000 light-years away.
Hubble continues to deliver gorgeous images of the universe. One of the latest images the space telescope has captured is that of an open star cluster called NGC 2002. This cluster is located around 160,000 light-years away from Earth. NASA shared this Hubble image of the cluster back in early December., the space agency described the star cluster as an open cluster that resides within the Large Magellanic Cloud .
NASA says that the cluster contains around 1,100 stars. On top of Hubble capturing an image of this star cluster, the space telescope has also captured images of other globular clusters within the region. Most notably, it recently captured, which is much tighter-knit than the open cluster seen here. While images like this might not provide as much aw as some of James Webb’s first images, they are still especially important to our continued exploration and understanding of the universe. Having a better understanding of these star-forming regions of space can allow us to dig deeper into the specifics of star formation, something we still don’t understand fully.
