“The Milky Way is nothing else but a mass of innumerable stars planted together in clusters.”
Galileo Galilei
“If you look at the very young stars in the cluster and the spacing between them, it isn't random spacing. They're all about the same distance apart.”
Erick T. Young
“All the stars in a cluster are the same distance away, so you can compare brightness without having to worry about whether a star that appears faint is actually very bright but just far away.”
Carlton Pryor
“It's a cluster theory of development. We bring our top players together and put them in an environment with all the necessary resources to excel.”
Craig Tiley
“We believe that the star clusters lighting up the tips of the pillars are essentially the offspring of the region's single, massive star.”
Lori Allen
“We believe this process of forming stars in a cluster was exactly the same thing that happened with our very own sun 4 1/2 billion years ago. It tells us a lot about the history of our own solar system.”
“We're going to cluster all the incoming freshman together. Sophomores and freshmen won't be sharing rooms next year.”
