Are these the diamonds in the sky that are with Lucy?
This brilliant young star cluster in our Milky Way would surely inspire a song. One of these giants is 80 times more massive and 2.5 million times brighter than the sun.
“Called Trumpler 14, this cluster of stars is located 8,000 light-years away in a huge star-forming region known as the Carina Nebula. The cluster is only 500,000 years old and has one of the highest concentrations of bright, massive stars in the entire Milky Way.”
