M107, Globular Cluster in Ophiuchus




M107 is a not so spectacular member of a group of objects known as globular clusters.

It lies at a distance of about 22,000 light years and is about 65 light years in diameter.

To get an idea of how globulars fit into the grand scheme of things, see "Galactic Wanderer"


This image was a 30 sec exposure with the MX516 through the 16" telescope.
