Subaru/Plejaden/Sieben Schwestern aus meinem Hinterhof

Messier 45, better known as the Pleiades, is an open star cluster in the constellation Taurus and 444 light years away from us. The light from this collection of blue, young stars is scattered by interstellar dust. These reflection nebulae are listed individually in the NGC catalog, for example the Merope Nebula NGC 1435.

So Subaru is the name of a star/constellation? Huh, TIL that explains their logo. I always assumed it was a Japanese surname.
