The stunning Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters or Messier 45, takes center stage! This beautiful open star cluster in Taurus is dominated by brilliant blue stars, which formed approximately 100 million years ago. The surrounding luminous nebula, often mistaken for remnant star-forming material, is actually an unrelated dust cloud that the cluster is currently traversing at 18 km/s. A perfect spectacle for winter nights—have you had the chance to spot it?
