C107 (NGC 6101)

This image of the globular cluster Caldwell 107, or NGC 6101, combines observations taken in visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light by Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 and its Advanced Camera for Surveys. The stars in Caldwell 107 are more loosely packed than those in other globular clusters, which usually have dense, compact cores.
