All that Glitters

A sparkling spray of bright stars outlines the galaxy ESO 318-13 in this recently released image from Hubble Space Telescope. The bright star near the center of the galaxy is actually a foreground star in our own galaxy. Many other galaxies, which are much farther than ESO 318-13, are visible around it and even through it.
