COSMIC MESSAGE
The Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters or M45, is the most famous star cluster in our sky. It is bright enough to see without binoculars, even from a light-polluted city. This open cluster, about 400 light years away, is surrounded by blue reflection nebulae that glow from the light of its stars.
