英文原文:Explanation: Also known as NGC 104 , 47 Tucanae is a jewel of the southern sky. Not a star but a dense cluster of stars, it roams the halo of our Milky Way Galaxy along with some 200 other globular star clusters . The second brightest globular cluster (after Omega Centauri ) as seen from planet Earth, 47 Tuc lies about 13,000 light-years away. It can be spotted with the naked-eye close on the sky to the Small Magellanic Cloud in the constellation of the Toucan . The dense cluster is made up of hundreds of thousands of stars in a volume only about 120 light-years across. Red giant stars on the outskirts of the cluster are easy to pick out as yellowish stars in this sharp telescopic portrait . Tightly packed globular star cluster 47 Tuc is also home to a star with the closest known orbit around a black hole . 说明: 杜鹃座 47又称为 NGC 104[3],是南天的一颗明珠。它不是一颗恒星,而是一个稠密的星团,与大约 200 个其他球状星团[4]一起漫游在本银河系的银晕中。杜鹃座47是从地球上看到第二亮的球状星团(仅次于半人马座ω[5]),距离我们约13,000光年。在天空中,只要用肉眼就能在杜鹃座[6]的小麦哲伦星系[7]附近看到它。这个稠密的星团由数十万颗恒星[8]组成, ,直径仅约120光年。在这张清晰的望远镜图像[9]中,星团边缘的红巨星[10]很容易辨认出来,因为它们是淡黄色的恒星。紧密排列的球状星团 47 杜鹃座也是已知环绕黑洞运行轨道[11]最近的恒星所在地。
