Open clusters are much younger and smaller than globular clusters. They are the recent birthplaces of new stars, which form out of clouds of dust and gas, and contain only hundreds or thousands of stars. Though the stars in an open cluster formed together out of the same material, they do not remain gravitationally bound over time and spread out, scattering their stars far and wide. Because they are not gravitationally bound, these clusters can have random and irregular shapes. They are located in the plane of our galaxy, along the spiral arms where the gas and dust in the Milky Way
