Baade's Window |
Globular Clusters near the center of the Milky Way |
 |
Walter Baade was
unable to observe the Galactic center itself due to
obscuring dust, but he found regions of less obscuration
close to the heart of the Milky Way, including “Baade’s
window,” which is centered around NGC 6528 (left) and
NGC 6522 (right) in Sagittarius. The bright star off the
frame south of NGG6528 is Gamma Sgr (10 Sgr) magnitude
3.63. |
