... 2014 February 22 . M44: The Beehive Cluster . ... Explanation: A mere 600 light-years away, M44 is one of the closest star clusters to our solar system. Also known as the Praesepe or the Beehive cluster its stars are young though, about 600 million years old compared to our Sun's 4.5 billion years. Based on similar ages and motion through space, M44 and the even closer Hyades star cluster in Taurus are thought to have been born together in the same large molecular cloud. ... About APOD | ...

... HUBBLE DISCOVERS BLACK HOLES IN UNEXPECTED PLACES . ... Even more odd, these new black holes were found in the cores of glittering, "beehive" swarms of stars -- called globular star clusters -- that orbit our Milky Way and other galaxies. ... Supermassive black holes found by Hubble in the centers of galaxies represent about 0.5 percent of the galaxies' mass. Amazingly, the black holes now found in star clusters, which are 10,000 times less massive than a galaxy, also obey this trend. ...

... BLUE STRAGGLER STARS are unusually hot and bright stars found in the cores of ancient star clusters known as globulars. ... BACKGROUND (from wikipedia): Blue straggler stars are stars in open or globular clusters that are hotter and bluer than other cluster stars having the same luminosity. ... There is evidence in favor of this view, notably that blue straggler stars appear to be much more common in dense regions of clusters, especially in the cores of globular clusters. ...

News & Views There seems to be something very healthy about astronomical research when, under the same cover, an event which took place in 1333 AD (Leonid bursts as a resonance meteoroid component from Comet Temple/Tuttle) is discussed followed by a paper on how we might more effectively search for extraterrestrial intelligence (in the optical). In this issue we also have a further paper on young clusters (Praesepe) and the low end of the stellar mass function (see IAJ , 1999, 26(1), 17). ...
