Astronomers from the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ) and elsewhere have used the Subaru Telescope to perform deep imaging observations of a distant globular cluster known as NGC 5466. The observational campaign yields important information about the structure of the cluster's tidal stream. The new findings were published February 4 on the arXiv preprint server.
