NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“M45: The Pleiades Star Cluster” is copyrighted by Antonio Fernandez-Sanchez. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Perhaps the most famous star cluster on the sky, the Pleiades can be seen without binoculars from even the depths of a light-polluted city. Also known as the Seven Sisters and M45, the Pleiades is one of the brightest and closest open clusters. The Pleiades contains over 3000 stars, is about 400 light years away, and only 13 light years across. Quite evident in the photograph are the blue reflection nebulae that surround the brighter cluster stars.
