Research Question

Hypothesis: As a star cluster ages, the diameter of it increases. 

Question: How does the age of an open star cluster affect its diameter?

Prediction:  We expect to see the diameter of the star cluster be bigger since the age of the cluster is older.

Justification:  From what we have read so far, globular clusters are older and are far bigger than open clusters. 

We chose this question because we were interested in star formations and how they form and grow.
