NGC 2451 is an open cluster in the Puppis constellation, probably discovered by Giovanni Battista Hodierna before 1654 and John Herschel in 1835. It was later postulated that this was actually two open clusters that lie along the same line of sight. This was subsequently confirmed in the late 20th century. The respective clusters are labeled NGC 2451 A and NGC 2451 B, and they are located at distances of 600 and 1,200 light-years, respectively.

The cluster's central star Pi Puppis is a red supergiant in its dying days. It has nearly 140 Solar radii but only 0.5 masses that of Sol, making it nothing more than a huge spherical cloud of gas. Several landable planets provide heavier elements as well as stunning views of the dying star.
