Pleione Taurus shell star  28 TauA B8pe star, one of the brightest stars in the Pleiades, which developed an envelope or shell first observed in 1938. The shell increased in strength and attained its maximum intensity in 1945; thereafter it weakened and was scarcely visible by 1954. In 1972 it developed another shell.
