How are Globular clusters typically described when viewed through a telescope compared to Open clusters like the Pleiades?

As fuzzy, densely packed spheres resembling snowballs.

Deep Sky Objects include various types of star clusters, which differ significantly in appearance. Open clusters, such as the well-known Pleiades (the Seven Sisters), are characterized by newly formed stars spread out in a looser configuration, appearing as dazzling sprinkles across the view. In contrast, Globular clusters represent much older, highly concentrated collections of stars packed into a spherical shape. Through a telescope, these densely packed spheres often lack the crisp definition of individual stars across their entire mass, thus presenting the appearance of fuzzy, spherical masses often likened to snowballs, though individual stars might be resolvable towards the periphery.
