The Pleiades, also known as the seven sisters, a star cluster located 444 million LY away #shorts

The Pleiades 🌌, also known as the Seven Sister and M45. Located 444 light years away, this open star cluster containing middle aged stars located in the constellation of Taurus. You can see the cluster with your naked eye in the night sky.
The cluster is dominated by the hot blue and luminous stars. The stars are currently passing an unrelated dust clouds through their interstellar medium.
There are 9 bright stars in this cluster, they are named for the Seven Sisters of Greek mythology: Sterope, Merope, Electra, Maia, Taygeta, Celaeno, and Alcyone, along with their parents Atlas and Pleione. Swipe to see them labelled in this photo.
I headed to Rockfish Valley Overlook after thanksgiving dinner last night and captured about 1 hour of Pleiadian light to get this image.

I came across Pleiades quite by chance scanning the sky with binoculars the other night. I'm not an astronomer but I'm studying the night sky for navigation. As the Orion constellation, Betelgeuse, Rigel and Jupiter are right outside my front door at the moment, I took the opportunity to have a closer look at the Orion Nebula. I was scanning around and came across an intriguing cluster of stars that I thought must be a constellation as they were so striking... but no, it was Pleiades.

The M45 Pleiades Star Clusters are located around 444 Light Years away ... Not 444 Million Light Years away ... That's way too far out into the unknown! 😊🙏

I’ve always wondered what that little group of stars was called

The Seven sisters were being hunted by an Orion Hunter in a MAD lust untill Zuzes heard there cries for help. And cast them in our night sky. A few years later the Orion Hunter was kileld by a Scorpion and he himself took place amongst the stars. The End

Bro I loved it but you can capture 444 light years away star but you can't zoom into Jupiter
