M5 is a globular cluster in the constellation Serpens. There are 200+ visible stars in this cluster, and there are perhaps 150+ globular clusters in our Milky Way galaxy. Globulars form a halo or shell around the center of the galaxy.
The images below are from a composite of 11, 6-minute frames taken with a 130mm astrograph at ISO1600 last night (05/26/22). The first image is a cropped version of the original widefield version that appears below it.
