Pleiades - Premium Photo Poster

from $15.50
The Pleiades (M45), better known as the Seven Sisters, is one of the most beloved sights in the night sky. Located about 444 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus, this open star cluster is home to thousands of stars, dominated by a handful of hot, blue-white giants that shine bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. The hazy blue glow surrounding them isn't a remnant of their birth — it's an unrelated cloud of interstellar dust the cluster is currently drifting through, lit up as the starlight scatters off countless tiny particles. This image was captured over hours of long-exposure astrophotography to reveal both the dazzling core stars and the faint, intricate dust lanes that thread between them. Printed on premium paper, it's a striking centerpiece for anyone drawn to the quiet beauty of the cosmos.
