Description

The seven sisters or called Pleiades are an open star cluster in the Milky Way (constellation Taurus) that can be easily seen with the naked eye. The star cluster actually contains at least 1200 stars, but only 6-9 can be seen depending on the location.

The beautiful reflection nebulae in the picture are created by the light of the stars but are not referred to as the Pleiades.
