Cluster

M15, also known as the Pegasus Globular Cluster or NGC 7078, is a magnificent swarm of hundreds of thousands of ancient stars, residing in the constellation Pegasus. Discovered in 1746, M15 is one of the oldest known globular clusters in our galaxy, estimated to be around 12.5 billion years old.

Located approximately 33,600 light-years from Earth, M15 boasts an apparent magnitude of 6.2, meaning it can be seen with the naked eye under dark skies. However, binoculars or a small telescope offer a more detailed view, revealing its impressive structure. The best time to observe M15 is during the fall months from the Northern Hemisphere.

Globular Cluster M2 is a captivating assembly of stars located in the constellation Aquarius. This globular cluster, situated approximately 33,000 light-years from Earth, has become a celestial highlight for observers worldwide due to is brightness, size, and easy observability.

M2 boasts a dense and symmetrical core, comprising hundreds of thousands of stars gravitationally bound together. The stars within M2 are ancient, with ages estimated to be around 13 billion years, making them some of the oldest objects in our Milky Way galaxy (our sun is only 4.5 billion years old).
