Her Majesty: Omega Centauri.

Omega Centauri is commonly classified as a globular cluster, the brightest observable from Earth.

It is observed in the constellation of Centaurus.

It is probably what remains of a dwarf galaxy absorbed by our Milky Way; in fact, a black hole was found inside.

Not observable from our latitude in Northern Italy, but perceptible from the South (Sicily) in very favorable weather conditions.
