"... mit Abstand nächstgelegenen ..."

finde nur ich diese formulierung ... bemerkenswert?

See the planet glide past not one but two star clusters this month. Look west at dusk and find bright Venus high in the sky. Then, with binoculars, look on either side of it. To the right (in mid-northern latitudes) is the star cluster, which appears like a tiny Big Dipper. To the left is the star cluster marked most notably by the bright orange star . The cyan line with points/dates marks its location each night through the 20th.

3 (South & West): Did you know you can see deep sky star clusters with the naked eye? It's true. Meissa (see above) is part of a cluster called Caldwell 69. Then if you draw a line through Orion's belt toward the west, you'll hit the V-shaped , and then the tiny-dipper-shaped cluster. These are what we call "open clusters," which means they're kinda loose collections of stars but they're gravity holds them to each other and they travel the night together.

(3/6)

That’s the cluster, the closest star cluster to Earth. The interesting thing is the Hyades is about 150 LY away, so Aldebaran isn’t part of the cluster, but in front of it; between us and it. Just a bit higher up is the cluster.

The Pleiades is 450 light years away, about three times farther than the Hyades. Because it's father, we see it as smaller than the Hyades, even though it's actually bigger than the Hyades is.

Il y a plus de 20 ans, je suis tombé amoureux de cette région du ciel, et pas que pour mon étoile favorite. Y en a-t-il de plus belle dans l'hémisphère Nord ?

Bon solstice d'hiver à toutes et à tous.

Le ninfe del firmamento: le Iadi e le Pleiadi. Forse son loro a custodire i segreti del cielo, ma restano silenziose. Eppure non mi stancherò mai di domandar loro quali siano questi segreti, a notte fonda, con gli occhi e col cuore.

Wonderful image of my favorite region of the Northern sky during the lunar eclipse of November 8th.

Simply gorgeous ! Congratulations @astrofalls.

As the moon dips behind the shadow of the earth, the stars and nebula of the night sky begin to show themselves. Here is how that looks to a deep sky camera setup!
