In Conversation With ChatGPT
ChatGPT is a fantastic resource. Ask it any question, and it will answer; ask it to write for any purpose, and it will oblige. Not only does it do the work for you, it does so in seconds and without objection. Never will it say, 'Get stuffed; do your own homework'.

NASA Picture of the Day: Millions of Stars in Omega Centauri
show more/less
Globular star cluster Omega Centauri, also known as NGC 5139, is 15,000 light-years away. The cluster is packed with about 10 million stars much older than the Sun within a volume about 150 light-years in diameter. It's the largest and brightest of 200 or so known globular clusters that roam the halo of our Milky Way galaxy. Though most star clusters consist of stars with the same age and composition, the enigmatic Omega Cen exhibits the presence of different stellar populations with a spread of ages and chemical abundances.
