NGC 5139

Today we see a shot of the spherical constellation Omega Centauri, NGC 5139, which can be found at the same time on www.astronomie.de with professional explanations by Peter Riepe as the astrophoto of the week. Of course, there is a comparison on Saturday, because a new picture of Fuerteventura from early June was successful in good conditions.
