Запись от Galactic Mapping Project

An open cluster in the constellation Crux, originally discovered by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille during 1751–1752. This famous cluster was later named the Jewel Box by Sir John Herschel when he described its telescopic appearance as "a casket of variously coloured precious stones".

The cluster contains the 5th largest known star (by radius), red super-giant HIP 62918.

HIP 62918 (DU Crucis)

Game map search ref: HIP 62918

HIP 62918, also known as DU Crucis, is one of the brighter members of the Jewel Box Cluster and the brightest red super-giant, strongly contrasting with the other bright members of the cluster which are mostly B-class stars. It is also the 5th largest known star in the game by radius, for a fair comparison, the solar radius of this star is 997.2555 compared to Betelgeuse's 640.3727 and VY Canis Majoris 1,419.9999.

This was a waypoint in the Magellan Experience expedition.
