Hyades & Pleiades seen from Aldebaran system
Hyades and Pleiades. Artists impression of the Hyades (yellow V-shape) and Pleiades (white, centre right) star clusters seen from a planet orbiting Aldebaran (orange). The V-shaped pattern of stars in the Hyades cluster forms the head of the constellation Taurus. Aldebaran is a red giant star about 45 times wider than the Sun. It lies 68 light years away from Earth - less than half the distance to the centre of the Hyades cluster, which is 130 light years away

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the night sky as seen from a planet orbiting Aldebaran, a striking orange star in the Taurus constellation. The artwork depicts two prominent star clusters, Hyades and Pleiades, against a backdrop of cosmic wonder. The Hyades cluster forms an enchanting yellow V-shape that represents the head of Taurus, adding to its celestial allure. Meanwhile, the Pleiades cluster shines brightly towards the center-right with its dazzling white stars. Aldebaran itself is an awe-inspiring red giant star that dwarfs our Sun by about 45 times in width. Located just 68 light years away from Earth - less than half the distance to reach the heart of Hyades at 130 light years away - it serves as a remarkable focal point for this extraterrestrial scene. This extraordinary artwork not only captures our imagination but also offers us glimpses into distant alien planetary systems and their breathtaking open star clusters like never before. It combines elements of science, astronomy, and artistry to create a visual masterpiece that leaves us marveling at the vastness and diversity of our universe.
