I love globular clusters
This is the Great Globular Cluster, M13, in Hercules, the largest globular visible from the northern hemisphere and contains several hundred thousand stars.
Imagine what the night sky would look like from a planet orbiting one of those stars!

While I wait for some vehicle work to be completed, I thought I'd treat those of you following to one of my passions, night sky photography! ✨
This is part of the Summer Milky Way, featuring the stars of The Summer Triangle, nebulousity around Cygnus, and some core-ward star clouds! Enjoy!
