The discoverer of this object was Friedrich Wilhelm Herschel, who first saw the object on May 24, 1784.

The Hubble Space Telescope, using the Wide Field Camera 3 and Advanced Camera for Surveys, captured an image of the globular cluster NGC 6540 in the constellation Sagittarius. This was reported by the press service of the observatory.

It is noted that NGC 6540 is a globular cluster, a stable, closely related group of stars. The population of these clusters can range from tens of thousands to millions of stars, all of which end up in a tight group due to mutual gravitational attraction.

Hubble looked into the center of NGC 6540 to help astronomers measure the age, shape and structure of the globular clusters at the center of the Milky Way, according to the agency.

Globular clusters contain information about the earliest history of the Milky Way, so studying them can help astronomers understand how our galaxy evolved.

Earlier it was reported that scientists published an image of the supernova remnant G261.9 + 5.5.
