What else can I help you with?
Are there countless globular clusters in the universe?
Yes. There are countless globular clusters in the universe.
Are Rigel and Deneb the brightest stars in the aging globular clusters?
Rigel and Deneb are not part of aging globular clusters. Globular clusters are tightly bound groups of old stars that orbit around galaxies, while Rigel and Deneb are individual bright stars that are not associated with globular clusters.
How many globular clusters are there in the universe?
There are over 15 trillion globular clusters (150 per galaxy) in the universe.
What is an globular cluster galaxy?
A globular cluster (without "galaxy") is a large group of stars, in form of a sphere, within a galaxy. A galaxy may have thousands of such clusters. I am not sure whether the term "globular cluster galaxy" has any meaning in astronomy. It might be a galaxy with a lot of such clusters.
Why do globular clusters have no planets in then?
Globular clusters are dense groups of stars with close interactions that make it difficult for planets to form and remain stable. The strong gravitational forces and frequent stellar encounters can disrupt planetary systems, leading to their absence in globular clusters. Additionally, the metal-poor nature of globular cluster stars may hinder planet formation, as metals are important building blocks for planets.
Are globular clusters typically much older than open clusters?
true
The brightest stars in aging globular clusters will be?
The hottest stars. Generally, globular clusters contain mainly old stars, population II stars
What are two types of star clusters?
two types of star clusters are Open clusters and globular clusters
What is the difference between the milky way and globular clusters?
Globular clusters are small groups of stars, while the milky way is a large galaxy containing hundreds of billions of stars, along with some of these clusters.
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.
Are there any clusters on the Andromeda?
Any major galaxy has LOTS of star clusters, including globular clusters, if that's what you mean.
Why are rounded clusters called globular clusters?
Precisely because they are rounded, like a globe or sphere.
