Super Star Cluster Westerlund 2 Puzzle
The young open cluster Westerlund 2 lies about 20,000 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina. It contains several hundred stars including some of the hottest known, and plenty of nebulosity surrounding the cluster. The nebulous light shines from the light of gas that is condensing down into the newborn stars. This object is a gem for Southern Hemisphere skygazers.
