Was ist der Bienenstock? Wann und wie kann man im Januar einen Sternenschwarm sehen?

The beehive cluster is the nickname given to a group of stars formally known as Messier 44.

The group is considered an open cluster, as the 1,000 or so stars that comprise it are only loosely connected by gravity. Located about 600 light-years away, the cluster is one of the closest of its kind to Earth, according to NASA.

The grouping should be visible in the night sky throughout January.
