... All previous such superstars have been found along with many companion stars in the centres of crowded star clusters. The star is known as VFTS 682 from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey catalogue of the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT) located at Paranal in Chile by means of the attached FLAMES instrument. ... Although VFTS 682 seems to be alone now it is not very far away from a very rich star cluster known as RMC 136 that contains several similar superstars. ...

... The latter will also help scientists construct a three-dimensional map of the nebula and should answer some questions about how it is interacting with the Pleiades cluster. Already Gibson and collaborators Kenneth Nordsieck of UW-Madison and Mark Holdaway of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory have added substantial evidence to the theory that the dust and gas the Pleiades nebula is composed of does not come from the famous cluster of stars that gives the nebula its name. ...
