Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have investigated a young open cluster in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), known as NGC 602. Results of the research, presented August 29 on the arXiv pre-print server, deliver important insights into the properties of this cluster, revealing that it experienced a sequential star formation process.
