What is the difference between an open cluster and a globular cluster?
it is amazing
What is the name of a group of 1000 stars?
Constellation or "asterism". The difference is that "constellations" are officially recognized by the International Astronomical Union, while an "asterism" is any other pattern or grouping of stars.
What has the highest amount of old stars..... An open cluster or globular cluster or association or spiral galaxy?
Whooooo there. That is a silly question. You or you teacher is forgetting about the total number of stars within a galaxy and cluster. Whilst a globular cluster has mainly older stars compared to an open cluster it will only contain a few billion stars, whereas a galaxy can have upwards of 500 billion stars, many of them old. So the answer is not definitive, but I think the answer you are looking for is global clusters.
What is an open cluster?
"An open cluster is a group of a few thousand stars that were formed in the same giant molecular cloud, and are still loosely gravitationally bound to each other.In contrast, globular clusters are very tightly bound by gravity.a large cloud of stars
What is the difference between a global cluster and an open cluster?
The density of the stars.
How do you use nebula globular cluster and open cluster in a sentence?
does it look like I know the answer,, you should open the book up and start reading and studying like normal kids............ that's how you get good grades........you guys cant be stupid enough not know the answer ok well bye c: c; love yall "
Globular clusters usually contain fewer stars than open clusters true or false?
Actually the terms "Globular" and "Open" are not related to the number but the age of the stars. Globlular clusters are many old stars packed in spherical form (they look like hazy mothballs to the naked eye) and "open clusters" are many young stars formed close to each other. The constellation Pleiades is an example of open cluster.
Does a star cluster have more stars than a open star cluster?
There are two types of star clusters. Globular clusters are tight groups of hundreds of thousands of very old stars which are gravitationally bound, while open clusters, are more loosely clustered, generally containing less than a few hundred stars, and are usually very young.
