NASA’s Hubble just unveiled a jaw-dropping image of one of the Milky Way’s oldest star clusters, NGC 6426, celebrating the U.S.’s 250th anniversary with cosmic fireworks in red, white, and blue. This 13-billion-year-old snapshot reveals ancient stars with minimal heavy elements—proof of the early universe’s elemental simplicity. Hubble’s colorful view also uncovers two stellar generations, showing how supernovae seeded the cosmos with heavier elements, paving the way for planets and life. As Hubble continues its deep dive into galactic history, the next chapter of cosmic discovery is just beginning.
