The Pleiades - Messier 45 This was the last target I was able to get before my old laptop died last November. I was able to salvage it with some stock flats and dark flats I took while trying to test a different way to take flats. I didn't like the results of those tests BUT it enabled me to salvage the hour and a half I spent on this target. Now that I am up an running again, I look forward to going after the Pleiades again this Fall! . 45 x 120s Dark, flat, dark flats and bias frames used for calibration 800 ISO - Bortle 8 .

The Pleiades is a nearby cluster of hot blue stars which are illuminating the gas and dust between them.
It is readily visible to our eyes, even in large cities. Look to the east this evening. With an apparent size about half that of a full moon, it is quite impressive.
Countless ancient cultures documented their impressions of it. Europeans call it the “Seven Sisters”, referring to Greek mythology. The Japanese named it “Subaru”.
This is an aggregate of 46 images where each photo was a 5 minute exposure. You need long exposures to reveal the faint reflecting dust clouds.
I photographed the Pleiades Cluster from my terrace in Strasbourg France over three nights in October 2022.

The Pleiades, M45, also called the Seven Sisters, is a very bright and distinct open star cluster in Taurus, surrounded by the reflection nebula NGC 1432 (most of that pale blue interstellar dust and cloudiness). The Seven Sisters are very hot blue stars about 444 lightyears away. Where I am in the northern hemisphere, around 43° latitude, the Pleiades rises in the night sky in October, peaks in January at almost 50° in the southern sky, before sinking below the horizon by the end of March—and then we don't see it in the night sky again until late autumn.
To the ancient Greeks, over 2,500 years ago, the rising of the Pleiades marked the start of shipping season, when sailing the Mediterranean was a bit less dangerous. Like a lot of ancient mariners, Ancient Greek sailors and navigators relied on astronavigation, using the stars to determine their precise position on the surface of the earth. An ancient Athenian ship could leave the Piraeus and sail directly out to sea, then head west, toward Syracuse, tracking the stars the whole way to determine their course. They would also be keeping track of the Pleiades' position in the sky each night, and use that to determine if they should pick up cargo and make the return trip or pick up some local coastal work through the summer and return to Athens in the fall.

Звёздное скопление #M45 #Плеяды на небе можно видеть примерно в зените в вечернее время в зимний период. Выглядит в виде маленького ковшика из семи звёзд. В бинокль или телескоп можно увидеть, что звёзд там намного больше, а также видны облака газа, из которого сейчас формируются новые звёзды. Это мои первые шаги в #астрофото прошу сильно не пинать) Серия из 60 снимков по 1 секунде собрана в #Siril обработана в #GIMP #astrophoto #fujifilm #xt1 #nightsky #longexposure (at Nakhodka) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoYIMQIsnA-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Pleiades, M45. An open cluster in Taurus. #astronomy
M45 Image exposure:60 MimutesImage date:2022-11-14Image Size2.1º x 1.39º You can see the Pleiades quite easily with the naked eye – provided your eyesight is in good condition. I know this for a fact because a few years ago, when out on a field night with Macarthur Astronomical Society, my eyesight was so bad, I could not find the Pleiades and had to request my friend John to shine his laser…

The Pleiades is a nearby cluster of hot blue stars which are illuminating the gas and dust between them. It is readily visible to our eyes, even in large cities. Look to the east on evenings in autumn. With an apparent size about half that of a full moon, it is quite impressive. Countless ancient cultures documented their impressions of it. Europeans call it the “Seven Sisters”, referring to Greek mythology. The Japanese named it “Subaru”, and you will indeed see it in the logo of the Japanese car company of that name. The challenge for amateur astrophotographers is to capture as much of the delicate dust and gas clouds as possible. I photographed the Pleiades Cluster from my terrace in Strasbourg France, August 2022. 60 images x 3 minutes each (3 hours of exposure). #pleiadescluster #pleiades #messier45 #m45 #messierobjects #astronomy #astrophotography #astrophotographie #astrophotographiefrance #poussièredétoiles (at Strasbourg, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChukNfQMz_G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Bus: Berliner Fahrgastverband IGEB fordert Sofortmaßnahmen gegen die BVG-Buskrise, aus IGEB
Wegen des akuten Mangels an #Fahrpersonal beim #Bus hat die #BVG angekündigt, die Fahrpläne ausdünnen zu wollen. Was ad hoc betrieblich geboten scheint, ist ein weiterer #Rückschlag für die angestrebte #Mobilitätswende.Richtig ist, dass der #Fachkräftemangel bei Busfahrerinnen und Busfahrern so gravierend ist, dass schon seit Längerem personell am Limit gefahren wird. Richtig aber ist auch, dass…
