NGC 2808 is a globular cluster located in the constellation Carina. It is approximately 46,000 light-years away from Earth and is one of the most massive globular clusters in our Milky Way galaxy, containing millions of stars. Discovered by James Dunlop in 1826, NGC 2808 is notable for its complex stellar population, which includes multiple generations of stars. This cluster is particularly interesting to astronomers because it exhibits a range of metallicities, indicating different formation processes and ages among its stars.
