09/11/05 Image Notes:
One final image for the day, the impressive open cluster Pleiades. Once again this is just the two images, blue and red, combined together as orange and cyan. I'm working on a stereo version of this that will show the stars with somewhat accurate distances, but it is going to take a while, so stay tuned!
