apod 2.3


This is a picture of the double cluster in the constellation Perseus. Since we had this constellation this week and learned that there was a double cluster in it, it was interesting to see what it actually looks like. it is also cool to know that this is the only double cluster that has been found in the universe. I found it strange how in the picture the 2 clusters look relatively close to each other, yet in the description it said that they are actually several light years away from each other!
