These clusters help astronomers study stellar evolution, star formation environments and the interplay between stars and interstellar gas and dust. Recently, the Hubble Space Telescope caught one of these …

Reanalyzing old data with our modern understanding seems to be in vogue lately. However, the implications of that reanalysis for some topics are more impactful than others.
