jsmoraes Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Also known as ESO 57-SC32, a moderate aged young open cluster, despite it appears like a globular cluster. If you think it is very small, imagine that it is inside another galalxy - LMC. The temperature of sensor was very high 40 degrees Celsius. Despite the sky is very dark, the seeing and transparency was not good. Some information about it at http://arxiv.org/pdf/1403.4519.pdf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion25 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I am not familiar with this one but it certainly does look like a globular cluster. Nice photo. Wish I could see in my hemisphere, haha. Regards, Reggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
