Algor cluster

The Algor cluster is a young open star cluster in The Silky Way, near the Verdan Federation. It's extremely young, and filled mainly with protostars which haven't fully formed. There are some older stars, as well as normal systems which happen to be in the cluster. 
== Physical Characteristics ==
The Algor Cluster contains roughly 3,150 stars, most of which are are dim red dwarfs and protostars. There are some more massive stars such as G-type and K-type stars, although most of them are protostars too. There are also many small brown dwarfs here that had ended up failing to become stars due to them not gaining enough mass. The cluster is also home to several more massive stars, and a couple blue giants such as Treumux.
=== Planets ===
Many protoplanets and young planets exist within the Algor Cluster. However, many many stars here are still too young and haven't really formed planets yet. The cluster also has a very high concentration of sub brown dwarfs, which are interstellar objects which were too small to even be brown dwarfs.
== Formation ==
The Algor Cluster was formed when a particularly large Bok globule (molecular cloud) was hit by a nearby supernova shock, causing it to collapse. Then, the cloud quickly fragmented into many small pieces, which eventually collapsed and formed the many stars we observe in Algor today.
