This image composition of the open cluster Messier 29 (M29 or NGC 6913) was taken on 17-18 November 2016. M29 is found near the star Sadr, the center star of the Northern Cross asterism (in the constellation Cygnus). It is a rich field of sky where the Northern Milky Way passes directly through. M29 has an apparent magnitude of 7.1 and is about 4,000 light years away. I think of M29 as a tiny version of the Pleiades cluster, even the form looks similar.
