The Jewel Box open cluster

The Jewel Box is a well known beautiful cluster of stars near the Southern Cross. Through the telescope this clusters looks amazingly brilliant and colourful, just like the name suggests, a box of jewels.

This photograph features the Jewel Box in quite a wide field setting, giving it context among the stars surrounding the cluster. This cluster is also known as NGC 4755 and resides in the constellation of Crux (Southern Cross).
