NASA / ESA’s Hubble Space Telescope views a brilliant cascade of stars in galaxy ESO 318-13, and despite being located millions of light-years from Earth, the sparking dots captured in this image are so bright and clear that you could almost attempt to count them. This brilliant galaxy is sandwiched between a vast collection of bright celestial objects.
Multiple stars near and far also shine brightly, but plae in comparison to the neat dusting contained within the galaxy. There’s one point in particular that really stands out, located near the center of the image, and appears to be an extremely bright star located within the galaxy. This is actually just a trick of perspective because the star is located in our own Milky Way galaxy and shines so brightly because it is so much closer to us than ESO 318-13. When humans finally do reach galaxies like this, it may be in the SpaceX Starship or something similar.

There are also a number of tiny glowing disks scattered throughout the frame that are more distant galaxies. In the top right corner, an elliptical galaxy can be clearly seen, a galaxy which is much larger but more distant than ESO 318-13. Peeking through ESO 318-13, near the right-hand edge of the image, is a distant spiral galaxy,” said NASA.
