πŸ“Έ Globular Cluster Omega Centauri

Omega Centauri, or NGC 5139, is the largest and brightest globular cluster in the Milky Way. Located 15,000 light-years away, it holds about 10 million stars β€” some older than the Sun.

Its mixed stellar ages and compositions hint that it may be the remnant core of a dwarf galaxy.
