Galactic clusters
This is cluster of stars lying on or close to the galactic disk. The stars were formed in the same nebula. These don`t have strong
enough gravitation to keep the members together,
hence the stars are slowly drifting apart. Easily seen galactic clusters are the Hyades, the Pleiades (M45), M38, M11 and the beautiful double
cluster in Perseus (ngc 869 & 884) below.
