    Small correction to the narration: The Pleiades is among the nearest star clusters, not the nearest.

      Some can even discern the separate stars within the Pleiades with the naked eye. I wear glasses, and can just get a glimpse of these stars, whereas the Pleiades rather resemble a cloud in the night sky. Of course, it depends on the Bortle scale. That affects the sight of the M31 Andromedae galaxy too: sometimes, I can see it with the naked eye in a low Bortle environment. Mostly, I need binoculars, knowing where M31 is located between Cassiopeia and Andromeda, to spot it.
      The Pleiades are easier to find: once you detect Orion, you should see M45 too, heading in front of Orion along the east-west direction. The blue clouds are only visible through photography though.

    I was playing Elite Dangerous in VR and plotted a course for Maia. I could see in the direction of the jump a small cluster of stars that looked familiar, surrounded by a lonely blue glow. Immediately I remembered being out in the desert in California, and seeing this cluster for the first time. The people who made the game actually modeled the nebula surrounding the Pleiades, and as I drew near the visual detail increased. It was easily one of the best moments in gaming I've ever had. Little did I know when I was a kid that modern technology would one day allow us to virtually visit those same stars I observed with awe.
    You astrophotography is beautiful. One day I want to get into the hobby myself, mainly because my vision continues to decline and even with glasses I can barely make out my favorite stars even on clear nights.

    • @pmboston

      Maybe because they are too bright, the James Webb studies infrared light, so these would be blinding in infrared red. Still the dust would show a lot of detail. Maybe they will, maybe by now they have.

      @@JohnKuhles1966 The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is an extremely powerful space telescope designed to observe the universe in the infrared spectrum. This allows it to see through dust clouds and observe the earliest stages of star and galaxy formation, something that is difficult or impossible for telescopes observing in visible light. However, when it comes to observing well-known, relatively close objects like the Pleiades star cluster, there are a few reasons why the JWST might not be the best tool for the job:
      1. **Brightness:** The Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters, is a cluster of stars that are relatively close to Earth and are very bright when viewed in visible light. JWST is optimized for observing very faint objects that are far away in the infrared spectrum. Looking at something as bright as the Pleiades could potentially damage its sensitive instruments.
      2. **Scientific Goals:** The primary mission of the JWST is to look back in time to the early universe, observing the formation of stars, galaxies, and planetary systems that are far away and thus seen as they were billions of years ago. The Pleiades, while scientifically interesting, are relatively young (in astronomical terms) and nearby, and they have been studied extensively with other telescopes. The JWST's time is better spent on targets that cannot be observed with existing telescopes.
      3. **Instrumentation:** The instruments on the JWST are specifically designed for infrared observations. While the Pleiades have interesting infrared features, especially when studying the dust and material around the stars, much of what can be learned from the Pleiades can be observed using less specialized instruments on other telescopes that operate in visible or other parts of the infrared spectrum.
      4. **Observing Time is Precious:** Time on the JWST is extremely valuable and competitive, with scientists around the world proposing observations for a limited amount of observing time. Priority is given to projects that make the best use of JWST's unique capabilities to answer questions that cannot be addressed in other ways.
      In summary, while the JWST could technically observe the Pleiades, its unique capabilities are better suited for observing the universe's earliest galaxies, stars, and planets, making it an invaluable resource for answering some of the most profound questions about the origins of the universe and life itself.

    M45 is certainly one of the most compelling and beautiful sights in the night sky, and I was only observing it the other night, using my 120mm refracting telescope. Depending on the atmospheric conditions at the time, it is sometimes possible to see the ‘ethereal blue’ of the reflection nebula too, even with a good pair of binoculars, in a sky of exceptional clarity, and away from the dreaded light pollution. On the subject of light pollution, I am forever perplexed by the fact that people who use very bright ‘security lights’, don’t think to hood their lights, so focussing the illumination on the area they are concerned about protecting, rather than letting the light spread outwards in all directions, including skywards!

    • @SKYST0RY
      @SKYST0RY  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Light pollution is such a huge issue. It turns out light pollution may be devastating for pollinating insects, too. At least, in many places, there are new regs going place to hood lights to force a tight, downward orientation.

And disappeared.There was an account in the local paper I believe ….so there you go.At 68 I still remember it as if it happened yesterday.Tim lambert Port Townsend Washington these days!

    Let's change the stars. What I mean is, get the IAU to, OFFICIALLY, make a new constellation.
    This idea for changing the stars includes Orion and Pleiades (Subaru). Figure it's time to put something up there that's relevant to us, don't you think? Take Orion's belt and Betelgeuse becomes the head with a baseball hat. The 3 stars of Orion's belt make up the 3 fat belt loops on a baseball uniform. Below the belt are two legs bending at the knee. Saiph is the back foot and Rigel is the front foot. The feet aligning perfectly under the bent knees. The spear pointing at "Subaru" is the bat being swung and "Pleiades" is the baseball flying away after being hit. Bellatrix is the hand that let go of the bat. Put it all together and you get, "THE ALL-STAR." In my case, I see a left-handed batter and I imagine a "7" on the jersey. Which makes him, "Mickey." (As it should be ;-) But you can put any number you want, making, "THE ALL-STAR," any player you want. It'd be wrong of me to not, at least, try. This is me, trying. Pass it on, please and thank you. Don't worry, where I come from, crazy is a compliment. ;-P
