M45 - The Pleiades

Known as Subaru in Japan. This cluster of hot, blue young stars 400 light years distant is slowly dissociating as the stars move away from each other. The cluster is surrounded by copious dust which is reflecting the stars light. One of the hallmarks of the boreal winter sky. A stack of 50 frames, 60 seconds each, ISO800. Oct 29, 2019.
