Open cluster M37 or NGC 2099


Hello fellows of Cyberspace, today I want to share these astrophotographs that I have taken to the M37 Open Cluster through the Slooh telescope network. These photos are with the Canario Uno telescope.
It can be seen that it is the richest open cluster in the Auriga constellation. It was discovered by Giovanni Batista Hodierna before 1654.
Its estimated distance ranges between 3600 and 4700 light years, with a real diameter between 20 and 25 light years.It contains several Delta Scuti variable stars (such as V6, V8 or V11), two eclipsing binaries Algolidas of type EA (V1 and V2, of periods not determined to date ), three eclipsing binaries of type EW (V3, V4 and V7) and several red binary spectroscopic giants. Sofar  no extrasolar planets have been discovered in the cluster.I hope you like it
