dc.description.abstractThe project aimed to estimate the ages of three stellar clusters (Melotte-72, Melotte-69, and Berkeley-29) through analysis of their Color-Magnitude Diagrams (CMDs) using the Turn-Off Point method with data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Age estimates were approx imately 709.2 mega years for Melotte-72 and approximately 3.18 giga years for both Melotte-69 and Berkeley-29. Since Melotte-72 is an open cluster, it’s expected to be younger than Melotte 69 and Berkeley-29 which are globular clusters.en_US
