06/10/2007 How Many Stars Are There?


I'm not sure but here are a few of them. This image is Globular Cluster M22, which lies in the summer Milky Way above the teapot. I took this during my night on Kitt Peak a couple of weeks ago, right before sunrise. I didn't have much time but I took about 10 minutes in each color filter and this is the result, quickly processed. Click Here for a larger version of this image. I'm way behind in processing and have a bunch to catch up on.
One look at something like this and you cannot help but feel small and insignificant - there are soooo many stars up there!
