Hubble unveils monster stars

An international team of scientists using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has combined images taken with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3 - ://.spacetelescope.org/about/general/instruments/wfc3/) with the unprecedented ultraviolet spatial resolution of the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS - ://.spacetelescope.org/about/general/instruments/stis/) to successfully dissect the young star cluster R136 in the ultraviolet for the first time [1].
