I wonder what nighttime looks like to an inhabitant of o solar system in M13. It must be spectacular…

Yes, living on a planet orbiting a star in the M13 globular cluster would mean seeing a lot of bright stars at night. But would it make up for not having chocolate?

Provided life can exist with all the energy from this compact grouping of stars, It might be that if you are in the center of the cluster you do not experience night because of all the ambient light!

Like living in a microwave/x-ray machine. No inhabitants.
