Difference between Messier 71 and Open cluster

Messier 71 vs. Open cluster

Messier 71 (also known as M71 or NGC 6838) is a globular cluster in the constellation Sagitta. An open cluster is a group of up to a few thousand stars that were formed from the same giant molecular cloud and have roughly the same age.

Messier 71 and Open cluster have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Charles Messier, Comet, Earth, Globular cluster, Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, Light-year, Metallicity, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, New General Catalogue, RR Lyrae variable, Variable star.

Charles Messier

Charles Messier (26 June 1730 – 12 April 1817) was a French astronomer most notable for publishing an astronomical catalogue consisting of nebulae and star clusters that came to be known as the 110 "Messier objects".

Comet

A comet is an icy small Solar System body that, when passing close to the Sun, warms and begins to release gases, a process called outgassing.

Hertzsprung–Russell diagram

The Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, abbreviated H–R diagram, HR diagram or HRD, is a scatter plot of stars showing the relationship between the stars' absolute magnitudes or luminosities versus their stellar classifications or effective temperatures.
