Located on the near edge of the Sagittarius Gap, two blue-white hyper-giants are found just 32 Ly apart. HR 6260 (also known as HD 152234) and SO4-H1E 2000 (also known as Zeta-1 Scorpii) serve as warning beacons for travelers about to enter the Sagittarius Gap. These hyper-giants are both part of the extended open cluster NGC 6231. Zeta-1 Scorpii was known by earth astronomers from antiquity, and is currently classified as one of the very rare 'S Doradus' type of variable star.
