Image title
Star cluster M46 and planetary nebula NGC 2438 - Open cluster M46 and planetary nebula NGC 2438 - M46 (NGC 2437) is an age cluster located at 5400 years - light. It contains about 500 stars, 150 of which are brilliant. It is about 300 million years old. The planetary nebula NGC 2438 (right) does not seem to belong to this cluster, and must be closer although its distance is unknown. M46 (NGC2437) is a rich open star cluster in the constellation Puppis. Within a diameter of 28 arc minutes, or about 30 light - years at its distance of 5400 light - years, M46 contains over 150 bright stars and a total population perhaps over 500. M46 is probably around 300 million years old. It is also noteworthy for the presence of the planetary nebula NGC 2438 on its northern edge (right of center). NGC 2438 is almost certainly not physically associated with M46 due to is probable evolutionary history, its significantly diffferent velocity, and a distance estimate only a little more than half the distance to M46
