Q. average size of Globular Clusters?

Hi all,

The rise of Sagittarius in the early evening has brought a few questions to mind:

*what is the average size of Globular Clusters?

*what is their upper and lower range?

*number of member stars?

I have been enthralled by the variety of G.C.s visible at this time of year. Some small and intense, others large but obscured by interstellar dust, others resembling exploding firecrackers. Just beautiful, .

Mental.
