M93 is yet another star cluster in Canis Major's neighboring constellation of Puppis, and can be found 10 degrees east northeast of Adhara in the surfer's legs. At a distance of about 3000 light years, this cluster is mid way between M46 and M47 in remoteness; the overall character of M93 is a bright but compact group, with about 60 members scattered over an area half the apparent size of the full moon.
