Caldwell 25- the Intergalactic Wanderer
In the center of the image, you can see Caldwell 25 or NGC 2419, also known as the "Intergalactic Wanderer," a globular cluster in the constellation Lynx, located approximately 270,000 light-years from Earth. It lies far beyond our Milky Way galaxy but is gravitationally bound to it and orbits our galaxy. The cluster is massive and luminous, containing hundreds of thousands of stars tightly bound by gravity. Image taken with my Seestar S50 telescope.
