Description

This image contains both the open cluster Messier 35 (right) and open cluster NGC 2158 (left). Other than being in the same constellation Gemini the two clusters are unrelated given that M35 is ~2,800 light-years distant while NGC 2185 is ~12,000 light-years distant. http://owlmountainobservatory.com https://www.facebook.com/OwlMountainObservatory
