The picture of NGC 288 in the optical (left side; credit: ESO/DSS) shows numerous sun-like cooler stars and it is hard to locate hot stars. The image of the same cluster in the ultraviolet (right side, taken by UVIT, yellow is the near-UV and white is the far-UV image; credit: Snehalata Sahu) shows only hot stars as the cooler stars become undetectable.
