Pan across Globular Cluster Messier 9 | Hubble

This video pans across Hubble observations of globular cluster Messier 9. This ball of stars (Hubble sees over 250,000 of them) is located towards the center of our galaxy. A wide palette of colors is visible here, a testament to the varied temperatures of the stars in the cluster. Red stars are cooler, while blue ones are hotter.

Distance: 25,000 light years
