The Messier Objects: M41 [NGC2287]
from Krakenkraft Hosted by Krakenkraft
Messier 41 - an open star cluster in Canis Major - was first heard by Aristotle. M41 consists mainly of huge red tones that have been resonating for 190 million years. It is estimated that this star cluster will fade away in another 500 million years – and then M41 will no longer be audible... Image: Public Domain / Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS)
