If the blobs in the background are the Heart and Soul, then that ringed thing is the large cluster of blue stars that is on the way over there. You can find it fairly easily on the galaxy map.
I don't know the name of the cluster, but I think it is a real-world thing, so someone might now. It is a nice place to visit if you're going to the Heart & Soul, or the Formidine Rift..

192Ly closer

after the first neutron jump.

Are you more and more confident about your estimation ? the image might not be enough

Looks like the KM Cassiopeiae cluster. A large cluster of O type stars not far from the Heart and Soul nebulae

I went through there on my way to Heart and Soul on my way to the Formidine Rift. It's directly between the bubble and the Hard and Soul nebulae.

If you target the star KM Cassiopeiae, it should be on the southern end of that cluster, closest to the two nebulae

Here are some screenshots I took when I passed by that area, but my approach was from the south-east

I assumed it was the Pleiades. I arrived at the Omega mining operation last night which is only 50 or so light years from the cluster. I might take a closer look after I get off night shift. It is very pretty here.

Omega Mining corp yes, beautiful over there

It is not the same direction. From the bubble Omega Mining Corp' is towards Sagitarius A+. In this question it is "like" 45° west on the coast of the milkyway and still in its plane

There are some stunning systems of O and B stars in this cluster around the Heart & Soul nebula's.

This one astounded me-the biggest F star I've seen actually in orbit of an O star!

However if you're looking to get a tag on anything in the super systems you are a couple of years too late for that!
