A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THREE TELESCOPES: NGC 1850

NGC 1850 is a 100 million-year-old star cluster that can be observed in the constellation Dorado and is located inside the Large Magellanic Cloud. The core of this cluster, which is about 63,000 times more massive than the Sun, is 20 light years in diameter.

This star cluster was studied with data from three different telescopes. X-ray data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory is represented in magenta, while optical light data from @NASAHubble is represented in red, yellow, green, cyan and blue. In addition, infrared energy data captured by the Spitzer Space Telescope are also in red.

This remarkable cosmic structure is notable both because it is located in the Milky Way's small neighboring galaxy and because it can be studied in detail at different wavelengths.
