M37 is one of the few open clusters known to contain a planetary nebula, which is catalogued as IPHASX J055226.2+323724.

Amazing! When I first saw the pink cloud in M37, I just couldn't understand what it was. It's a planetary nebula! It is very large, it is very old (the oldest known planetary?), it sits in a ~500 million year old cluster, and the progenitor star had a mass of about ∼2.8 M_☉, which would make it a star of late type B (B8 or B9).

The huge planetary nebula in M37 has been a planetary nebula for a long time (a million years???), but its presence in this cluster still tells us something about how long a late type B star with a mass of some 2.8 M_☉ can be expected to live, its red gianthood included.
