IMAGE number
PIX4569078
Image title
The cluster of stars Pismis 24 in the Scorpio - Pismis 24 star cluster in Scorpius - This image obtained by the Hubble space telescope shows the cluster of young stars Pismis 24, located about 8000 years - light in the nebula NGC 6357 of the Scorpio. This cluster houses a star that was thought to be the most massive star in our galaxy, between 200 and 300 solar masses. The measurements obtained by the Hubble telescope showed that this star, Pismis 24 - 1, was actually a double star and that its mass was actually only about 100 solar masses. High - resolution observations from Hubble have shed light on the real mass of a star previously believed to be among the heaviest known in our Milky Way. Originally, the mass of the star was thought to be an incredible 200 - 300 solar masses, but turned out to be only 100 solar masses
