The sneeze on the windscreen..



I am a little bit fascinated by globular clusters. I know this looks a bit blurry but this seems to be the nature of the object.  Thousands of new stars all still caught in each other’s gravitational hold, revolving in their spherical holding pattern until some break free.. then others.  I’m not going to be around to watch the entire galactic dance, so I’m happy to see this small part.  This is the Omega Centuri Cluster.
