[00:00:00]This cosmic neighborhood contains 100,000 suns packed into a space smaller than the distance to our nearest star.

[00:00:07]Meet star clusters, the universe's most crowded stellar cities.

[00:00:12]These stellar cities are so tightly packed that if Earth lived inside one, our night sky would contain 50,000 stars brighter than Venus.

[00:00:21]The oldest ones formed 12 billion years ago, making them nearly three times older than our entire solar system.

[00:00:27]Some clusters travel through space at 200 miles per second, fast enough to cross the entire United States in 15 seconds.

[00:00:36]They're held together by gravity so strong that stars inside orbit the cluster's center for billions of years without escaping.

[00:00:43]The most massive clusters contain more stars than some entire galaxies, over 10 million suns crammed into a ball just 300 light-years across.

[00:00:53]If that rewrote how you picture stellar neighborhoods, follow for more cosmic revelations that'll expand your universe. Stay tuned for more astound facts.
