Summary

Description
العربية: العُنقُود النجمي پيسميس 24-1 الواقع في مركز السديم الإشعاعي NGC 6357 المُمتد لِدرجوٍ واحدةٍ في السماء باتجاه كوكبة العقرب. جُزءٌ من هذا السديم مُتأيِّن بسبب أصغر النُجُوم (الأشد ازرقاقًا) وأثقلها في آن، الكامنة في پيسميس 24. الأشعة فوق البنفسجيَّة المُنبعثة بِشدَّةٍ من النُجُوم المُشتعلة تُسخِّنُ الغازات المُحيطة بِالعُنقُود فيتولَّد عن هذا فُقاعة ضمن سديم NGC 6357. وُجُود سُحب الغازات المُحيطة هذه يجعل خوض غمار هذه المنطقة أكثر صُعُوبة.
English: The star cluster Pismis 24 lies in the core of the large emission nebula NGC 6357 that extends one degree on the sky in the direction of the Scorpius constellation. Part of the nebula is ionised by the youngest (bluest) heavy stars in Pismis 24. The intense ultraviolet radiation from the blazing stars heats the gas surrounding the cluster and creates a bubble in NGC 6357. The presence of these surrounding gas clouds makes probing into the region even harder.
Español: El cúmulo estelar Pismis 24 se encuentra en el núcleo de la gran nebulosa de emisión NGC 6357 que se extiende en el cielo un grado en dirección a la constelación Scorpius. Parte de la nebulosa es ionizada por las estrellas pesadas más jóvenes (más azules) en Pismis 24. La intensa radiación ultravioleta de las estrellas ardientes calienta el gas que rodea el cúmulo y crea una burbuja en NGC 6357. La presencia de estas nubes de gas circundantes hace aún más difícil la exploración de la región.
Polski: Gromada gwazd Pismis 24 położona w centrum ogromnej mgławicy emisyjnej NGC 6357, która na niebie rozciąga się na jeden stopień w kierunku gwiazdozbioru Skorpiona. Część mgławicy jest zjonizowana przez najmłodsze (najbardziej niebieskie) ciężkie gwiazdy z gromady Pismis 24. Intensywne promieniowanie ultrafioletowe z płonących gwiazd podgrzewa gaz otaczajacy gromadę i tworzy „bąbel” w mgławicy NGC 6357. Obecność tych chmur gazu sprawia, że badanie tego obszaru jest jeszcze trudniejsze.
Čeština: Hvězdokupa NGC 6357 (Pismis 24) v jádru velké emisní mlhoviny NGC 6334 v souhvězdí Štíra Část mlhoviny je ionizována nejmladší těžkou hvězdou v Pismis 24 a vzniká tak velmi intenzivní ultafialové záření.
Italiano: L'ammasso stellare Pismis 24 nel nucleo della nebulosa a emissione NGC 6357. Parte della nebulosa è ionizzata dalle giovani stelle blu in Pismis 24. L'intensa radiazione ultravioletta dalle stelle infuocate scalda i gas che circondano l'ammasso e creano una bolla in NGC 6357. La presenza di questa nuvola di gas rende l'osservazione della regione ancora più difficile.
한국어: 피스미스 24 성단은 전갈자리 방향의 각도 1도에 펼쳐져 있는 거대한 발광성운 NGC 6357의 중심부에 위치한다. 성운의 일부는 피스미스 24 내부의 가장 젊은 (가장 푸른) 무거운 별에 의해 이온화되었다. 이글거리는 별이 내뿜는 강한 자외선 복사가 성단을 둘러싼 기체를 가열하여 NGC 6357의 거품을 만든다. 이러한 주위의 기체 구름의 존재는 해당 부분의 면밀한 조사를 더욱 어렵게 한다.
Македонски: Ѕвезденото јато Пишмиш 24 во средината на оддавната маглина NGC 6357.
Nederlands: Pismis 24 is een open sterrenhoop in de emissienevel NGC 6357
Português: Pismis 24-1, uma parte de um aglomerado aberto localizado no núcleo da grande nebulosa de emissão NGC 6357, que se estende no céu um grau em direção à constelação Scorpius. Parte da nebulosa é ionizada pelas estrelas massivas mais jovens (mais azuis) em Pismis 24-1. A intensa radiação ultravioleta das estrelas ardentes aquece o gás que envolve o aglomerado e cria uma bolha na NGC 6357.
