M82 is the nearest starburst galaxy. It contains two large systems of super
star clusters, one being spawned today in the active starforming core, and one
produced by an earlier starburst event which coincided with the last orbital
passage of its neighbor, M81. The proximity of M82 makes it uniquely valuable
for a wide range of studies of massive young clusters and their environments.
