Hyades flew near us 800 thousand years ago (no comments and no stops)

In the video you can see the movement of the open star cluster Hyades among the other stars over 4 million years. Look at where the cluster was 2 million years ago, where it is now and where it will be 2 million years later.

It is clearly visible that about 800 thousand years ago the cluster flew as close to us as possible. Since then the Hyades move away from the Sun. Now the cluster is located in the constellation of Taurus in the projection near the bright red star Aldebaran. To the right of the Hyades cluster, also in Taurus, you can observe another bright open star cluster of the Pleiades, perhaps the most spectacular one in our sky.

For the next 2 million years the Hyades will move further and further away from the Sun until they are lost among the rest of the stars.
