An eight-billion-year-old cluster of stars 13,000 light-years from Earth, called NGC 6791, can be seen in the image. ... This particular cluster is called an open cluster, because the stars are loosely bound and have started to spread out from each other. The area pictured is 0.2 percent of Kepler's full field of view, and shows hundreds of stars in the constellation Lyra. The image has been color-coded so that brighter stars appear white, and fainter stars, red. ...

... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

Why areNuclear Star Clusters interesting? 1) Many -- if not all ­ nuclear star clusters appear to be young, or at least have a young population of stars. ... 3) If nuclear clusters indeed form in the galaxy center, their impact on the dynamics of stars and gas in the central region of the host galaxy needs to be understood, because it can potentially influence the galaxy morphology. For example, it has been suggested that nuclear clusters can destroy stellar bars and thus form galaxy bulges. ...
