Today they removed the cluster of speakers that hung above the stage at the amphitheatre. Here's a before shot.
Messier 3 (M3 or NGC 5272) is a globular cluster of stars in the northern constellation of Canes Venatici. It was discovered on May 3, 1764, and was the first Messier object to be discovered by Charles Messier himself. Messier originally mistook the object for a nebula without stars. This mistake was corrected after the stars were resolved by William Herschel around 1784. This cluster is one of the largest and brightest, and is made up of around 500,000 stars. It is estimated to be 8 billion years old. It is located at a distance of about 33,900 light-years away from Earth.

Yes, I know, it's just a patch of daisies in the grass. Easy photo to do, but I like it because the daisies have an air of cheekiness and opportunism. Insignificant buttercups, although small, provide diagonal interest.

Members of the new ICT cluster created with the support of EU4Business, discuss priorities at a meeting at Tbilisi’s Mioni building.
The Georgian ICT Cluster was established in December 2017 with the support of the EU-funded ‘SME Development and DCFTA in Georgia’ project. The cluster supports participation in public policy development for the ICT sector, dialogue with state agencies, and education – fostering the development of a professional workforce that will meet current industry demands and the challenge of internationalisation.

This image, from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), reveals thousands of globular clusters lying at the core of a galaxy cluster. It was created by a Hubble survey that drew on data from three of the telescope’s separate observing programmes to explore the centre of the Coma cluster, a huge gathering of over 1000 galaxies, about 320 million light-years away, all bound together by gravity. Astronomers spotted over 22 000 globular clusters, some of which had formed a bridge connecting a pair of well-known interacting galaxies (NGC 4889 and NGC 4874). A globular cluster is a spherical group of stars that usually orbits a galaxy as a self-contained satellite. However, the globular clusters studied here are of a different type, intracluster globular clusters. Specifically, these are globular clusters that are not bound to an individual galaxy, but to a galaxy cluster — in this case, Coma. While globular clusters orbiting our Milky Way reveal themselves as sparkling spherical assemblies of densely packed stars, at the distance of the Comla cluster, they only appear as tiny dots of light, even to Hubble's advanced vision. However, a characteristic feature of globular clusters is their colour; since the stars in any given cluster all formed at around the same time and from the same “stuff”, they usually have a consistent colour. In this way, the astronomers were able to identify the clusters — and rule out background galaxies lying in the same region of sky — by analysing their colour and size, painting a beautiful family portrait of Coma and its clusters. With the help of the identified globular clusters astronomers can map the distribution of matter and — even more important — of dark matter in the Coma cluster. The Coma Cluster was one of the first places where observed gravitational anomalies indicated the existence of dark matter. Links Science paper STScI press release
We got a dusting of snow overnight. I put my scarf down and then blew the loose snowflakes over to the scarf. It worked.
The clusters are from me flipping over my scarf. This is what was stuck to the scarf.
