The Constellations - Taurus

This is the twenty-second episode of our ongoing series about the constellations. Today we explore the constellation Taurus, the bull, and take a closer look at some of the star clusters visible in the night sky. We also examine the Crab Nebula pulsar and the history of the Messier Catalog.
