Best Answer

Partly: The formation of an open cluster begins with the collapse of part of a giant molecular cloud (a dense cloud of gas containing thousands of times the mass of the Sun) Many factors could trigger the collapse of a giant molecular cloud (or part of it) and a burst of star formation which will result in an open cluster, including shock waves from a nearby supernova and gravitational interactions.
