Scientific paper

Sk-66 deg 41 is not a single star, but a compact cluster of at least six components with important implications for star formation theories and the distance scale in the universe. It is presently noted to constitute substantial evidence against the existence of stars possessing more than 100 solar masses, in view of recently obtained CCD images in B, V, and R. The possible multiplicity of sample stars in published catalogs will alter the shape of the upper part of the initial mass function.
