Known as the Christmas Tree cluster, this colorful collection of stars lies 2,600 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Monoceros, the unicorn.

One of the things I least like about where I live is the lack of stars in the sky from city lights and pollution.  Not that it compares to that pic, but some of my fondest childhood memories include stargazing on a summer night.
