open clusternounpreferredTerm-admn-stsgalactic clusternounsupersededTerm-admn-stsAnother name for an open star cluster. They are often termed Galactic
Clusters because they are found mainly in the plane of our galaxy. If
you were to view our galaxy from afar, you would find that all the
open/galactic clusters lie within the spiral arms of the galaxy.N-Source:
