This image captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows Terzan 1, a globular cluster about 22,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Scorpius.
As NASA explained in a statement, it is one of 11 globular clusters that were discovered by the Armenian-Turkish astronomer Agop Tarzan between 1966 and 1971, when he was working in France, primarily based at the Lyon Observatory.
Terzan 1 is not a new target for the Hubble telescope. An image of the cluster was released in 2015, captured by Hubble’s Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2).
As detailed by NASA, this device has been replaced by Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) During a Hubble maintenance mission in 2009.
WFC3 has superior analysis power and a wider field of view than WFPC2, and the improvement is evident in this fantastically detailed image. paying off:

As detailed by NASA, known as Caldwell 67, the galaxy in this image #Hubble_Classic It is located about 45 million light-years away.
Its spiral arms extend beyond this view – more than 100,000 light-years
Also according to the information, a circle of bright and brilliant stars forms the center of the spiral galaxy. The arms of the galaxy stretch to cover the entire image, punctuated by purple bursts of star formation. paying off:
