Scientific paper

A brief introduction is given to the digital universe and the virtual observatory. Some of the material currently available via the World Wide Web which may be used in an astronomical project is examined by means of a worked example using the galactic cluster Ruprecht 55. The possibility that this object may in fact be two clusters lying in almost the same line of sight, as has been suggested by Orsatti, is further examined using proper motions from the UCAC1 catalogue and Australia Telescope National Facility neutral hydrogen radio observations.
