It's #HubbleFriday time!

This week's new image shows the globular cluster NGC 6652. Globular clusters are roughly spherical groups of stars held together by their mutual gravitational attraction.

NGC 6652 is about 30 million light-years away: https://go.nasa.gov/3Oi5MLD

Just checking in! 👀

Hubble sometimes checks in on our galactic neighbors, like the one featured in this #HubbleFriday view.

Known as ESO 174-1, this galaxy contains a bright cloud of stars, and a faint, meandering tendril of dark gas and dust: https://go.nasa.gov/46oEnjv
