Without question, astronomy is about Big Data and clustering a very common task over domain. The expectation-maximization algorithm among the top 10 data mining algorithms used in scientific industrial applications, however, we observe that astronomical community does not make use of it as algorithm. In this work, cluster $\sim$ 1M stellar objects (simulated Galactic spectral data) via traditional for (EM-T) our extended EM-T call EM* present experimental results.
