NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF THE SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD 200,000 LIGHT-YEARS AWAY!!! 🌌

An area of space filled with stars. Most of the stars are small, distant dots in a range of orange colors; closer stars shine with a bright glow and hold four thin diffraction spikes around them. These closer stars appear both bluish and reddish. Clouds from a nebula cover the left half of the scene, giving it a blue-greenish cast. More clouds also drift over the black background of space on the right side of the image.

I never realized the Small Megellanic Cloud was so full of red dwarf stars

Did you see the picture of the most distant galaxy? It’s about 13.4B light years away
