"Hubble telescope captures breathtaking image of dazzling globular cluster"

TL;DR Summary
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured a stunning new photo of the globular cluster Terzan 12, located 15,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Sagittarius. The cluster appears bright red due to interstellar dust and gas that obscure our view. The photo reveals a higher concentration of stars near the center of Terzan 12, shining extra bright. The image was taken as part of an initiative to study the relationship between age and composition of globular clusters in the innermost region of the Milky Way.
