Description

That's it, I am done waiting for clear skies, I am processing what I have as I accumulate the date, I think Quebec's weather is changing to UK weather...

Messier 67 is one of the oldest star clusters known and the oldest of all the Messier clusters. Containing perhaps 500 stars, and about 100 stars similar to our own Sun, this cloud contains no main sequence stars bluer than spectral type F, since the brighter stars of that age have already left the main sequence – no matter how it may appear! Among its 150 white dwarf stars, there’s only about 30 blue stragglers.
