Star clusters
Double star cluster. Optical image of the double star cluster (centre) in the constellation Perseus. North is at top. The left cluster is Chi Persei (NGC 884) and the right one is h Persei (NGC 869). These clusters are around 7000 light years from Earth. They are thought to have formed from the same cloud of gas around 15 million years ago, before drifting apart. They now lie around 50 light years from each other

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of star clusters in the constellation Perseus. The image captures the double star cluster, with Chi Persei (NGC 884) on the left and h Persei (NGC 869) on the right. Located approximately 7000 light years away from Earth, these stellar pairs are believed to have originated from a common gas cloud around 15 million years ago before gradually drifting apart. The celestial twins now find themselves separated by about 50 light years, yet their close proximity is still evident in this optical image. Against the backdrop of the night sky, these open clusters shine brightly like cosmic jewels, illuminating our understanding of cosmology and stellar evolution. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring snapshot, it reminds us of both our insignificance in the vastness of space and our profound connection to its wonders. The intricate dance between these stars serves as a reminder that even in seemingly infinite darkness, there exists harmony and unity. Captured by Science Photo Library's lens, this photograph not only celebrates humanity's curiosity about distant realms but also invites us to contemplate our place within this grand tapestry of existence. It ignites a sense of wonderment as we ponder how such celestial marvels came into being and continue to shape our understanding of the universe we call home.
