Globular Clusters

Post by gillberk »

A spherically symmetric collection of old stars that share a common origin. Globular clusters contain from tens of thousands to millions of stars and measure from 100 to 300 light-years across. Some have been shown, in all likelihood, to contain middleweight black holes in their cores. globular clusters are tightly gravitational and it is a bound collections of Population II stars. They inhabit the galactic halo and galactic bulge, and show significant concentration toward the galactic center. One of the nearest globular clusters, M13 (the Great Cluster in Hercules), was the target for an early attempt at CETI, though whether planets exist within globulars clusters is still a matter of debate. The Other brigh and the well known globular clusters include M2, M3, M4, M5, M80, Omega Centauri, and 47 Tucanae.
