M22

Today I am going to talk about the M22 object

It is a globular cluster observed by Abraham Ihle in the year 1665 and later by Charles Messier in the year 1764.

Using the VLA radio telescope several Black holes have been found and counted up to 32 variable stars as well as a planetary Nebula.

This object is located in Sagittarius and is one of the closest to the earth having a distance of only 10, 400 light years.

I hope you like the pictures.

Thought of the day by Plato


In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one.
