Messier 38 or M38, also known as NGC 1912 or Starfish Cluster, [4] is an open cluster of stars in the constellation of Auriga. It was discovered by Giovanni Batista Hodierna before 1654 and independently found by Le Gentil in 1749.
NGC 1907 is located just to the right of Messier 38 which is located in the far left corner. Observation data (J2000 epoch) Right ascension: 05 h 28 m 06 s: Declination
Charles Messier. The first edition of 1774 covered 45 objects (M1 to M45).The total list published by Messier in 1781 contained 103 objects, but the list was expanded through successive additions by other astronomers, motivated by notes in Messier's and Méchain's texts indicating that at least one of them knew of the additional objects.
HD 35519 is a giant star in the direction of open cluster Messier 38. It was once treated as a cluster member, [7] but is now known to be a foreground object. [1]
NGC 1893 is an open cluster in the constellation Auriga.It is about 12,400 light years away. The star cluster is embedded in the Tadpole Nebula (HII region IC 410).[5]Images of the star cluster by the Chandra X-ray Observatory suggest that it contains approximately 4,600 young stellar objects.
Messier 37 (also known as M37, NGC 2099, or the Salt and Pepper Cluster) is the brightest and richest open cluster in the constellation Auriga. It was discovered by the Italian astronomer Giovanni Battista Hodierna before 1654. M37 was missed by French astronomer Guillaume Le Gentil when he rediscovered M36 and M38 in 1749.
