Most fantastic Stars in Our Universe

NGC 346
Star cluster NGC 346 is located 210,000 light-years away in the center region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way. It's one of the most dynamic star-forming regions in space. NGC 346 is located in the constellation Tucana.
NGC 2467
The lower right side of the image shows young stars transmitting energetic radiation, and a cluster of young stars dominates the left side. Dust lanes and dark globules are sites of future star formation. NGC 2467 is in the southern constellation of Puppis, about 17,000 light-years away.

Butterfly Cluster M6
M6, also known as the Butterfly Cluster, is visible to the naked eye in the constellation Scorpius. Containing about 80 stars and roughly resembling the shape of a butterfly, it's 20 light-years in diameter and approximately 2,000 light-years away. Young, blue stars, with the brightest star nearly orange, make up M6.

Supernova remnant N 63A
The distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is approximately 160,000 light-years away in the constellation Dorado. Supernova remnant N 63A is the remains of a massive star that exploded in an already turbulent region.

Light echo from star V838 Monocerotis
In 2002, V838 Monocerotis suddenly became 600,000 times brighter than our Sun. While its outburst faded, the flashes "light echo" illuminates features around the star. These details provided a CT scan-like probe of the structure of dust shells ejected by an aging star.

Star cluster NGC 290 in the SMC
This open star cluster is located about 200,000 light-years away in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), a satellite of our Milky Way Galaxy located in the constellation Tucana. It's approximately 65 light-years across.

Double star cluster (NGC 1850)
NGC 1850 is a double star cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy to the Milky Way Galaxy. This cluster is representative of a class of objects called young, globular-like stellar associations that has no counterpart in our own galaxy.
