APOD 2.4

Double Cluster 

This image contains the Double Cluster from the constellation Perseus. Its a star forming region that is nearly 7,000 ly away from Earth. This object is actually viewable with the necked eye or binoculars. In addition, its also  circumpolar so it can be viewed every night all year.
