8.92 in MWSC, $\log \rm{t}$ = 8.85 according to . The latest major review of the stellar content of Praesepe [@2007AJ....134.2340K] dates back more than one decade. Over an area of 300 $\deg^2$ on the sky, they found 1010 candidate members in Praesepe, and also estimated the total mass to be 550 $\pm$ 40 M$_\odot$ and a tidal radius of 11.5 $\pm$ 0.3 pc. @2013MNRAS.434.3236K used 2MASS and SDSS photometry and proper motions from the PPMXL catalogue to determine the stellar content of Praesepe. They found a total cluster mass of about 630 M$_\odot$ and a 2-D half-mass radius of 3.90 pc. Using Gaia DR2 data, and published membership lists of stars for quite a few open clusters in the Solar neighbourhood including Praesepe. found 938 candidate members, and they also determined a mean parallax, mean proper motions, as well as age of, and reddening towards NGC 2632. For Praesepe, give membership probabilities for 719 stars as well as mean parallax and mean proper motions.

This paper primarily aimed at the detection of the tidal tails of Praesepe, if they existed, but we also publish some characteristic astrophysical data of the cluster itself. The paper is structured as follows: In
