1. NGC 346: Located within the Small Magellanic Cloud, it is a young, massive star cluster, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way.
It has been more than 30 years since Hubble Space Telescope was launched in space (April 24, 1990). Over the years, the telescope has clicked some awe inspiring photos. Here are some selected ones. Enjoy!
2. Jupiter & Ganymede: Hubble Space Telescope captured pic of Ganymede, one of Jupiter's many moons peeking out behind the planet.
3. 30 Doradus: It is the largest and brightest star-forming region in the Local Group of galaxies. Doradus is also known as Tarantula Nebula.
4. NGC 3603: This star cluster is about 20,000 light-years away. A young star cluster, it is located in the Carina spiral arm of the Milky Way.
5. Orion Molecular Cloud: It is a massive, star-forming region within the Orion constellation, a complex of giant molecular clouds (GMCs). It is located about 1,350 light-years away!
6. CW Leonis: It is a carbon star, a type of red giant star with a carbon-rich atmosphere. From Earth, it is approximately 400 light-years away in the constellation Leo.
7. NGC 1850: It is a young, "globular-like" star cluster, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). After the 30 Doradus complex, it's considered the second brightest star cluster in the LMC.
