Globular Clusters: Stellar Pockets - NASA Science
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have learned more about globular clusters – stable, tightly gravitationally bound clusters of tens of thousands to millions of stars found in a wide variety of galaxies.

🌌 NGC 1841 — A Lonely Cluster at the Edge of Time NGC 1841 is one of the most enigmatic globular clusters associated with the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). With an age of nearly 13 billion years, it formed in the early epochs of the universe. What makes it extraordinary is its extreme isolation—it lies far from the center of the LMC, almost as if it doesn’t belong. The cluster has an exceptionally low metallicity, indicating it formed when heavy elements were still rare. Astronomers believe NGC

STARFORGE Simulation • The Anvil of Creation 1.3.2022 • (Best viewed on larger screen, view till end) This movie is the first numerical simulation of star formation in a massive (20,000 solar mass) giant molecular cloud with individual star formation and a comprehensive treatment of feedback, from protostellar jets, radiation in 5 frequency bands, stellar winds, and core-collapse supernovae. This makes it the first simulation with the full STARFORGE physics package. This particular cloud has bee

In globular clusters like M80, stars are held together by their gravitational attraction to each other. These roughly spherical star clusters are often home to hundreds of thousands or even millions of stars. M80 is one of the densest of the ~150 globular star clusters known of within our home galaxy, the Milky Way. It's located about 28,000 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius.

Are these images fireworks … or star clusters in space? Watch to find out. These space images resemble fireworks because star clusters are groups of stars that share an origin, forming at roughly the same time and location, and are tied together by gravity for millions or even billions of years. This gravity can hold these stars in a spherical burst shape, like a firework! How many did you guess correctly? | NASA Universe
