5. Abstract

There are 101 Galactic globular clusters (GGC) with Hubble Space Telescope Wide
Field Planetary Camera 2 (HST/WFPC2) observations. We propose to consistently reduce
all 101 GGC using ALLFRAME, and to provide a web based archive for the astronomical
community. This service to the community will encourage comparative studies of the
GGC system and the stellar populations therein. As an example we will use our
archive to create a complete catalog of GGC blue straggler stars (BSS) and
horizontal branch (HB) stars; and to check if cluster density correlates with BSS
numbers and/or HB morphology.
