       Discover the cosmos! Each day a different image or photograph of our

       A starfield is shown with thin wisps of gray and red running through   
       it. In the center is an usual ball -- which is a globular cluster of   
         stars upon closer inspection. Please see the explanation for more   
                               detailed information.

      Explanation: Stars, like bees, swarm around the center of bright   
      globular cluster M15. The central ball of over 100,000 stars is a relic   
      from the early years of our Galaxy, and continues to orbit the Milky   
      Way's center. M15, one of about 150 globular clusters remaining, is   
      noted for being easily visible with only binoculars, having at its   
      center one of the densest concentrations of stars known, and containing   
      a high abundance of variable stars and pulsars. The featured image of   
      M15 was taken by combining very long exposures -- 122 hours in all --   
      and so brings up faint wisps of gas and dust in front of the giant ball   
      of stars. M15 lies about 35,000 light years away toward the   
      constellation of the Winged Horse (Pegasus).
