Alicante 7, also known as RSGC5, (Red Supergiant Cluster 5) is an open cluster rich in red supergiants found in the Scutum-Crux Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, along with RSGC1, Stephenson 2, RSGC3, Alicante 8, and Alicante 10. [2] Alicante 7 contains 7 red supergiants, making it one of the most massive open clusters known. [3]

Notes

  1. ^ The radius of Alicante 7 can be calculated using the angular size and the distance
