This is a photo of the Pleiades, M45. It is a 1.5 magnitude object that is easily visible in the heavens. It is sometimes called the Seven Sisters ecause seven stars are visible to the naked eye. It is also called that because the stars represent the seven daughters of Atlas. You can see some nebulosity around several stars. It is real, not an artifact from my photo processing. The Pleiades is one of the first sky objects I remember seeing. Photographed February 12, 2024.
