Far beyond the two bright stars in this image lies the Hydra Galaxy Cluster,
(a.k.a Abell 1060) in the constellation Hydra. Lying 158 million light years
years away from earth, the cluster packs more than 150 galaxies into an
area 10 million light years in diameter. Be sure to look at the "original"
size, and look around for all the tiny, fuzzy galaxies.
