Stock 23 - "Pazmino's Cluster"

Acquisition type: Electronically-Assisted Astronomy (EAA, e.g. based on a live video feed)

1956 Dr. Jürgen Stock discovered this (what he believed) open cluster. But as of it's brightness he assumed it to be known already and did no further investigation.
So it happened to be rediscovered 1977 by amateur astronomer John Pazmino who wrote an article about this cluster.
Today it is assumed that it is an asterism based on the data from HIPPARCOS (High Precision Parallax Collecting Satellite); the motion of the principal stars suggests that there is no gravitational binding of the cluster. So it could no longer exist in this form in the distant future.

The brightest star in this cluster is HD20134 (mv 7,47).
Distance to earth: 1240 LY
Constellation: Cassiopeia/Perseus

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
