Globular cluster M5 in Serpens - Globular cluster M5 in Serpens - This cluster of stars is located about 25,000 light years away from Earth. It is one of the most extensive (165 years - light) and one of the oldest known globular clusters. Globular clusters are generally peoples of very old stars, but here the Hubble space telescope has identified some young stars, blue stragglers. The globular cluster Messier 5, shown here in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image, is one of the oldest belonging to the Milky Way. The majority of its stars formed more than 12 billion years ago, but there are some unexpected newcomers on the scene, adding some vitality to this aging population. Stars in globular clusters form in the same stellar nursery and grow old together. The most massive stars age quickly, exhausting their fuel supply in less than a million years, and end their lives in spectacular supernovae explosions. This process should have left the ancient cluster Messier 5 with only old, low - mass stars, which, as they have aged and cooled, have become red giants, while the oldest stars have evolved even further into blue horizontal branch stars. Yet astronomers have spotted many young, blue stars in this cluster, hiding among the much more luminous ancient stars. Astronomers think that these laggard youngsters, called blue stragglers, were created either by stellar collisions or by the transfer of mass between binary stars. Such events are easy to imagine in densely populated globular clusters, in which up to a few million stars are tightly packed together. Messier 5 lies at a distance of about 25 000 light - years in the constellation of Serpens (The Snake). This image was taken with Wide Field Channel of Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys

Globular cluster NGC 6397 in the Altar - Stars in globular cluster NGC 6397 in Ara - Image of the center of the globular cluster NGC 6397 located 8200 years - light in the southern constellation of the Altar. The density of stars is very important, the stars are distant from each other only a few weeks light (the star closest to our Sun is four years away - light). Sometimes a collision between two stars occurs; they merge into a single, young, bright and warm star called a blue straggler; some of these stars are visible near the center of the image. This Hubble Space Telescope view of the core of one of the nearest globular star clusters, called NGC 6397, located 8,200 light - years away in the constellation Ara. The stellar density is about a million times greater than in our Sun's stellar neighborhood. The stars are only a few light - weeks apart, while the nearest star to our Sun is over four light - years away. The ancient stars are so crowded together that a few of them inevitably collide with each other once in a while. Near misses are even more common. Even so, collisions only occur every few million years or so. When direct collisions occur, the two stars may merge to form a new star called a “” blue straggler”””; these hot, bright, young stars stand out among the old stars that make up the vast majority of stars in a globular cluster. Several such bright blue stars are visible near the center of the cluster in the image. This Hubble image is a mosaic of two sets of images taken several years apart by the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 taken in 1997 and 1999
Globular cluster NGC 6642 - Stars in globular cluster NGC 6642 in Sagittarius - Stars in globular cluster NGC 6642 in Sagittarius - Image of the center of the globular cluster NGC 6642 located in the constellation Sagittarius. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observed blue straggler. The core of NGC 6642, shown here in this Hubble Space Telescope image, is particularly dense, making this globular a difficult observational target for most telescopes. Using Hubble's ACS, astronomers have already made many interesting finds about NGC 6642. For example, many blue stragglers”” (stars which seemingly lag behind in their rate of aging) have been spotted in this globular, and it is known to be lacking in low - mass stars. This picture was created from visible and infrared images taken with the Wide Field Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys. The field of view is approximately 1.6 by 1.6 arcminutes.
Blue stragglers in cluster 47 Toucan - Blue stragglers in globular cluster 47 Tucanae - This image obtained by the Hubble space telescope shows a detail of the 47 Toucan cluster near its center (the field is indicated on the left image taken from the ground). The yellow circles on the right image indicate the position of stars identified by the telescope as blue trainers. Because of the high density of stars within a globular cluster, a collision between two stars sometimes occurs, merging into a single young, bright and warm star called a blue straggler. The core of globular cluster 47 Tucanae is home to many blue stragglers, rejuvenated stars that glow with the blue light of young stars. A ground - based telescope image (on the left) shows the entire crowded core of 47 Tucanae, located 15,000 light - years away in the constellation Tucana. Peering into the heart of the globular cluster's bright core, the Hubble Space Telescope's Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 separated the dense clump of stars into many individual stars (image on right). Some of these stars shine with the light of old stars; others with the blue light of blue stragglers. The yellow circles in the Hubble telescope image highlight several of the club's blue stragglers. Astronomers theorize that blue stragglers are formed either by the slow merger of stars in a double - star system or by the collision of two unrelated stars. For the blue straggler in 47 Tucanae, astronomers favor the slow merger scenario. This photo is a three - color composite of Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 archival images taken with ultraviolet, blue, and violet filters. Green, blue, and red colors were assigned to the filters and scaled so that the red giant stars appear orange, the main sequence stars are white/green, and the blue stragglers are appropriately blue. The ultraviolet images were taken on
Globular cluster M30 in Capricornus - Globular cluster M30 in Capricornus - The globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099) is located about 28,000 light years away from Earth. Globular clusters are generally peoples of very old stars, but here the Hubble space telescope has identified some young stars, blue stragglers. Messier 30 formed 13 billion years ago and was discovered in 1764 by Charles Messier. Located about 28 000 light - years away from Earth, this globular cluster - - a dense swarm of several hundred thousand stars - - is about 90 light - years across. Although globular clusters such as this one are mainly populated by old stars, the crowded field of stars leads to some old stars apparently reclaiming their youth in the form of blue stragglers. Researchers using data from Hubble's now - retired Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) have identified two types of blue stragglers in Messier 30: those that form in near head - on collisions with one another and those that are in twin (or binary) systems where the less massive star siphons “” life - giving”” hydrogen from its more massive companion. This image of Messier 30 (M30) was taken by Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS)

Soviet(Russian) soldiers engaged in hunting down German stragglers in Rostov-on-Don, Russia. During a German retreat in Nov. 1941, the Soviets pushed the Nazis out of the city, achieving the first significant German withdrawal of the World War 2, and the sacking by Hitler of General Gerd von Rundstedt

Globular cluster NGC 6752 - Stars in globular cluster NGC 6752 - Image of the center of the globular cluster NGC 6752 located in the constellation Peacock. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observed blue straggler. NGC 6752 is a globular cluster, and at over 10 billion years old is one the most ancient collections of stars known. It has been blazing for well over twice as long as our Solar System has existed. NGC 6752 contains a high number of blue straggler”” stars, some of which are visible in this image. These stars display characteristics of stars younger than their neighbours, despite models suggesting that most of the stars within globular clusters should have formed at approximately the same time. Their origin is therefore something of a mystery. Studies of NGC 6752 may shed light on this situation. It appears that a very high number - - up to 38% - - of the stars within its core region are binary systems. Collisions between stars in this turbulent area could produce the blue stragglers that are so prevalent. Lying 13 000 light - years distant in Pavo constellation, NGC 6752 is far beyond our reach, yet the clarity of Hubble's images brings it tantalisingly close.
