    Its core has undergone a contraction known as "core collapse" and it has a central density cusp with an enormous number of stars surrounding what may be a central black hole. [12] Home to over 100,000 stars, [11] the cluster is notable for containing a large number of variable stars (112) and pulsars (8), including one double neutron star ...

    Stars that would be brighter than this shed their outer layers so rapidly that they remain hot supergiants after they leave the main sequence. The majority of red supergiants were 10-15 M ☉ main sequence stars and now have luminosities below 100,000 L ☉, and there are very few bright supergiant (Ia) M class stars. [22]
