URSA GREAT
I recognize it by the BUCKET!
Seven stars sparkle here
Here's what their names are:
DUBHE illuminates the darkness,
MERAK is burning next to him,
On the side is FEKDA with MEGRETZ,
A daring fellow.
From MEGRETZ away
ALIOT is located
And behind him - MITZAR with ALCOR
(These two shine in unison.)
Our ladle closes
Incomparable BENETNASH.
He points to the eye
The path to the constellation BOOTES,
Where the beautiful ARCTURUS shines,
Everyone will notice him now! 
Our sweet planet
(You know that, of course!)
Every day and every year
Makes a turnover.
And from Earth, when observed
It gives the impression
That it’s not she who’s spinning,
And all the stars and the moon.
Only POLAR STAR
Doesn't want to go anywhere!
And at any time of the year
In the very center of the round dance
Can you find her?
If you suddenly lost your way.
The earth's axis is on it
Directs the tip.
You can be sure:
Where she is - there is the NORTH!
That star is not just a point,
And the leg of BEAR’S daughter!
Black nose of Mama BEAR
It will point directly at her! 
The DRAGON crawled on its way.
Suddenly I saw someone's legs! -
Then, talking with each other,
THE BEARS walked in a circle.
So as not to go back,
He began to squirm between them.
Suddenly he braked while running -
It was he who saw VEGA!
Brightest in the evening world
Blue VEGA in LYRA!!!
Struck by beauty
And so our DRAGON froze! 
The Dragon has a neighbor.
He is a grump and a homebody.
Although the house is crooked,
But it is quite durable.
It has no windows or doors,
And King Cepheus lives in it.
"W" [double yu] close to CEPHEU
This means "woman" in English.
That is the wife of King CEPHEUS
Proud CASSIOPEIA. 
Long-necked Southerner
It's freezing beyond the Arctic Circle.
Hey GIRAFFE, watch out!
A LYNX is lurking behind!
From such a height
It's not easy to see! 
Constellations of the summer sky
Summer sky constellation map
Between Cepheus and Lyra,
Wings spread over the world,
SWAN flies slowly
in height,
Sparkles brightly
DENEB on the tail.
On a clear night
on the Milky Way
Northern Cross
try to find it!
Many wonderful feats
A famous hero committed
Decoration of heaven -
Incomparable HERCULES!
Between Vega and ARCTURUS
Find his figure -
He always says nothing
Ready for new exploits!!!
A little to the right in the sky -
Stars of the NORTHERN CROWN,
Seven pearls in a diadem,
GEMMA sparkles the brightest 
Between Vega and DENEB
Draw a dotted line to the South -
There the EAGLE flies across the sky,
And ALTAIR sparkles!
ALTAIR, DENEB and VEGA -
Kings in the summer sky!
Let everyone remember
schoolboy:
This is a SUMMER TRIANGLE!
Eagle, Dolphin, Arrow, Fox
Here is the EAGLE, and next to it
Cute little DOLPHIN.
An ARROW flies over the EAGLE
(Someone was aiming at the EAGLE),
It's good that I didn't hit it!
Only scared the FOX. 
The SNAKE has two constellations -
This is the TAIL and HEAD,
Entangled in tight rings,
Ophiuchus is between them.
Who grabbed which of them -
I have no strength to figure it out!
He kicks during a fight
Hooked on the ZODIAC!
And it won’t break out in any way,
Unlucky extra sign!
And further south in midsummer
Blazing red
Evil ANTARES - SCORPIO,
And he wants to sting
Ophiuchus right in the foot,
But help is near!
Right in the heart of SCORPIO
Aims the bow of SAGITTARIUS Chiron! 
Poor, poor CAPRICORN!
Fish tail instead of legs
Pieces of foam in the beard,
And on the horns there is a star.
And it happened on a clear night
Surrounded by beautiful nymphs
How he played the pipe! -
Everyone danced and sang!...
Many, many hundreds of years
He swims after SAGITTARIUS
And sighs incessantly...
You won't recognize the forest pan! 
Bright stars of the summer sky
Constellations of the autumn sky
Constellation map of the autumn sky
Here is the wife of King CEPHEUS
Proud CASSIOPEIA
There is a chain of bright stars behind her -
This is their own daughter
And her fiance PERSEUS
Placed himself next to her.
That PERSEUS is a brave warrior,
He is worthy of ANDROMEDA,
Order on the chest - MIRFAC
He wears it for a reason!
He fought with the Gorgon,
Almost turned to stone
But I managed to cut it off
Let her head off the jellyfish's shoulders!
And from the neck at the same hour
The horse PEGASUS appeared...
He looked around - and jumped!
Run away from PERSEUS!
But the bride of Perseus
Found myself in the right place -
Grab PEGASUS by the bridle,
Holding out a star to him!
So I ended up in the BIG SQUARE
Andromedin ALFERATE. 
At CEpheus the homebody
There is a daughter ANDROMEDA,
They chained that maiden
To be devoured by KIT
Here is the WHALE - coming from the south!
Scared away all the FISH in the area!...
PEACE
Found in the constellation CET.
MIRA is a wonderful star!
But see that star
You can only do it once a year! 
Here is the constellation ARIES!
Sometimes the moon stays there,
Because this sign
Heads the ZODIAC.
And although the lamb is small,
His star is GAMAL
Since a long time
on sea voyages
Helps sailors! 
The gods settled in the sky
A flock of PISCES and CAPRICORN,
AND DOLPHIN AND WHALE,
But they all need water!
Here they called AQUARIUS,
It pours and pours without regret!
Everything around was filled with water,
That's why on the side
There are very few noticeable stars -
They barely shine at full strength.
AQUARIUS in the sky - wait
Autumn, puddles and rain. 
Constellations of the winter sky
Not afraid of winter and cold,
Having belted myself tighter,
Equipped for hunting
ORION speaks.
Two stars from the major leagues
IN ORION - this is RIGEL
In the lower right corner,
Like a bow on a shoe.
And on the left epaulette -
BETELGEUSE is shining brightly.
Three stars diagonally
Decorate the belt.
This belt is like a hint.
He is a heavenly pointer.
If you go to the left,
You will find the miracle SIRIUS.
And from the right end
Path to the constellation TAURUS
He points straight
Into the red eye of ALDEBARAN.
The HARE jumped out with acceleration
Right at the feet of ORION!
ORION is not dangerous -
He's targeting Taurus! 
Orion's belt-
Three stars diagonally
If you go to the left,
Miracle - you will find SIRIUS!
He is beautiful, no doubt!
So that this diamond is priceless
The evil thief did not take it away,
The watchman here is a HUGE DOG!
SMALLER DOG - a little taller
He went on guard in heaven
And, forgetting peace and sleep,
Protects PROCION. 
Orion's belt -
Three stars diagonally
And from the right end -
The path to the constellation TAURUS -
He points straight
Into the red eye
ALDEBARANA.
The bull is well-fed and horned.
The right horn crowns the NAT,
And his nose is burning
Two hundred small GIADs.
Above the scruff of this mascara
Curling seven
crystal flies.
We are glad to introduce you
With the PLEIADES cluster 
GEMINI - two true friends
They walk side by side in a circle.
How similar their figures are!
These are the Dioscuri Brothers.
CASTOR - once and
POLLUX - two!
Their friendship is praised by word of mouth! 
Can you hear the sound in the heights?
Then the ringing sound of hoofs!
The goat walks boldly
And her name is CAPELLA.
Little goats hurry after her,
Stepping on her heels.
Take a closer look
And count: one, two, three!
And their owner is the CHARIER
And smart and energetic,
Because all year round
He drinks fresh milk. 
Two brave TWINS
A messenger was sent to LION:
“We send our respects to the King of Beasts!
We are looking forward to your visit in January!”
The messenger hastened to go,
True, backwards.
To deliver the letter on time
Crawling all the time to the east,
But I couldn’t make it in time,
After all, this messenger is CANCER! 
Bright stars of the winter sky
Constellations of the spring sky
King of beasts golden mane
Stately and lazy
Lies on the ecliptic
And he doesn’t look at the Lion Cub
REGULUS - symbol of royal power
Guarded by a formidable mouth,
And on the tassel of the tail -
Oh! What a beauty! -
VIRGIN joked
Bright bow - DENEBOL! 
A RAVEN walks near a cup -
Thirst torments the poor thing!
HYDRA guards the CHALICE
And he doesn’t let you get drunk. 
Here he is a formidable LION, and on the left,
Waking up from sleep,
A VIRGO rises above the earth, -
So spring has come to us!
SPIKA shines like a brooch,
At the end of her braid.
The VIRGO presses her leg,
So as not to touch the SCALES.
Higher north of SPIKA
Curls of the faithful VERONIKA. 
Bearded BOOT
Sometime in March
at a late hour
Took my favorite HAINING DOGS
And he went to graze the oxen.
The path among the stars is not easy,
He decided to take a break
And animals by the tails
Under cover of darkness
Tied to the star ARCTURUS
And took a smoke break.
But he put the poor guy to sleep...
Only in the morning did he notice
That the rope is attached
To the tail of the BEAR!!!
That's when BOOTES understood,
That she was herding bears all night! 
These star LIBRA
Can weigh watches!
Instead of weights here are minutes:
Day and night, and in total - a day.
In summer there are more light weights -
The day, of course, lasts longer,
And in winter it’s the opposite!
And only twice a year
There will be balance
That is, EQUINOX. 
From observations of the starry sky, ancient scientists determined that there are four main stars in the sky: Regulus, Aldebaran, Antares, Fomalhaut, which provide a clue to the Sphinx (Egypt).

2. Taurus - Aldebaran (east) - legs of the Ox - Earth
3. Scorpio - Antares (west) - Eagle wings - Water
4. Aquarius - Fomalhaut (south) - Human head - Air
These stars are considered the guardians of the sky. They are located in such a way that if you mentally draw straight lines through them, you will get a cross. The countdown comes from the star Fomalhaut.
The Earth's axis (precession) completes a full rotation in ~26,000 years (Plato's year).
History (according to Blavatsky and others):
24,000 years ago, the vernal equinox point of Aries was in conjunction with the star Fomalhaut. There were 5 main human races. Then there was a civilization on the continent of Arctida, whichlaid the foundations of the white race and gave the teachings of the Avesta.
18,000 years ago, T. Aries was in conjunction with the star Antares.
Arctida disappeared in the waters of the Arctic Ocean, climate changes occurred. All civilizations were in harsh conditions of survival or death. The red race found itself in better conditions,gave civilization to Atlantis.
11,000 years ago, T. Aries was in conjunction with the star Regulus. The Atlantean civilization after its peak was heading towards degeneration (cataclysms). The Great Flood occurred. The world has returned to primitive level.
5,000 years ago, T. Aries was in conjunction with the star Aldebaran. This is how our world was created. Our civilization lives 5,000 years and will live another 2,000 years until T. Aries coincides with the star Fomalhaut. On thisThe revolution of humanity will end.
Constellations are areas of the starry sky, highlighted for ease of orientation on the celestial sphere and designation of stars. The entire sky is divided into 88 constellations. They bear the names of mythical heroes (for example, Hercules, Perseus), animals (Lion, Giraffe), objects (Libra, Lyre), etc.
Stars in Constellations
Stars are luminous balls of gas (plasma) similar to the Sun. They are formed from a gas-dust environment (mainly hydrogen and helium) as a result of gravitational instability. When the interior of stars reaches a high density and temperature (about 10-12 million K), thermonuclear fusion reactions of elements begin - the main source of energy for most stars.
Stars are classified by luminosity, mass, surface temperature, chemical composition, and spectral features.
At certain stages of stellar evolution, a number of stars go through a stage of nonstationarity. Depending on their mass, stars at the end of their evolution become either white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes.
Modern boundaries of constellation areas
List of Constellations
International Astronomical Union 88 constellations are officially recognized [of which about 54 are visible in Russia]. The table also shows Latin names in the nominative and genitive cases, official abbreviations, area in square degrees and the number of stars brighter than 6.0m. For ease of use, sorting by any parameter is included.

Extracts from the lecture “About the Stars” by Lea and Alexander Imshiragich, held in St. Petersburg. (Aleksandar Imshiragic is a famous Serbian astrologer, director of a large astrological school in Belgrade, author of books on natal, karmic and synastric astrology, degreeology and Arabic points).
The meaning is this - if the planets in your horoscope coincide with the position of the Star, the situation from the legend may repeat itself in your destiny.
For more detailed information, read the book “About the Stars” by Alexander Imshiragich.
Stars
To better understand the characteristics of stars, you need to look at the histories of the constellations to which they belong. Data on stars as of January 1, 2000.
1) Aldebaran (constellation Taurus) – guardian of the east.
α – Aldebaran 9gr.47min Gemini (left eye - looking at us)
Aldebaran (east - 9 degrees 47 minutes Gemini) and Antares (west - 9 degrees 48 minutes Sagittarius) are in opposition.
Therefore, both sides are turned on at once.
2) Rigel (constellation Orion) Orion - a person takes care of himself, wants to be the first, the most important everywhere.
β – Rigel 16g.50min. Gemini - left foot
3) Betelgeuse (constellation Orion).
α – Betelgeuse – 28g.45min. Gemini - right shoulder - athletes
“+” - eternal glory, long-term success
“-” - danger of lightning strike, violent death
4) Sirius (constellation - Canis Major) - stands guard. These are alarm systems, everything that warns (alarms for apartments, cars, offices). In life - a great outstanding person who provides patronage. All Canis Major stars are associated with dogs, or problems with them; with large masses of something. Connected with Saturn if Jupiter - on this star there are wins, thanks to dogs.
5) Conopus (constellation - Carina (Argo) - the 1st ship in the history of mankind. Symbolizes a long journey, travel, trips. King Pelias (son of Poseidon) sent Jason (son of Eson (Eson - Pelias' half-brother)) to the Argo for the golden fleece and the king promised Jason to give his daughter and kingdom in marriage to him. The king took the golden fleece and refused to give up the kingdom and daughter. Without heroes, Jason would not have been able to get the fleece. Medea helped a lot, but also took revenge for the fact that he left and left in
alone. She destroyed his family, and Jason, in his old age, died alone near his former ship, the Argo.
15g. Cancer - exaltation of Jupiter - gives long journeys. A person can find something new on our planet.
MORAL: A person can be loved very much, but also jealous. And take revenge.
If Mars is in these degrees, Saturn is a story according to Sirius - a connection with protection, patronage or with dogs.
If Venus, Jupiter - history according to Canopus - travel.
6) Pollux (constellation - Gemini).
β – Pollux 23g.13min. Cancer
7) Procyon (constellation – Canis Minor)
α – Procyon – less than Sirius. The person is not very significant and important.
8 Regulus (constellation Leo) – guardian of the north.
Regulus is the heart of Leo, it is designated as a king or a very high title. α – Regulus 29gr.50min. Leo (transition of a sign to another 20gr.12min. Virgo - gives a very big and significant event). Leo is the kingdom, Virgo is the workers.
The story of Hercules (1st labor) - Nemean lion. Hercules needed to deal with the main problem. Hercules defeated the lion with the help of cunning and dexterity (he blocked one exit from the cave, arrived from behind and killed him). But at the end of the story, a collapse is possible - the lion was invincible. If the planets are afflicted by Saturn, Pluto is the cave where the lion was killed. From Saturn, Pluto, Neptune and
On the 12th - history may repeat itself.
Indicates a gold medal for an athlete (with good aspects). Getting the most important, main place. In this case, the Sun should not be damaged, otherwise failure.
9) Spica (constellation Virgo) - southern hemisphere.
α – Spica 23g.50min. Libra
The story of Icarius and his daughter Erigone. Dionysus gave Icarius a vine and he was the first to grow grapes in Attica. One day a goat entered the vineyard and began to eat the leaves. Icarius got angry, skinned the goat and made everyone dance around it. One day he gave wine to the shepherds. And they, not knowing that they were drunk, fell asleep. Their friends thought that Icarius had killed them - and they killed him. The body was hidden in the mountains (or lowered into a well). Dying, Icarius realized the connection between actions and consequences (he skinned a goat and died too
violent death) and realized that you need to pay attention to the little things. Erigon's daughter searched for her father for a long time and found her with the help of Myra's dog. Out of bitterness, Erigona hanged herself and the dog died next to her. Before her death, Erigone cast a curse that there would be suicides of young girls.
Until her father's killers are found and punished. Since then, they have been burning in the sky in the form of constellations - Bootes, Virgo and Canis Major.
MORAL: Our actions lead us to consequences. Any tragedy in life begins with Dva.
10) Arcturus (constellation Bootes) – northern hemisphere.
α – Arcturus 24gr.14min. Libra
History of Callisto and Arcade. (see the history of the constellation Bootes).
MORAL: a person tries, out of ignorance and ignorance, to destroy his roots. "Not remembering
Thomas” - does not know the gender, even if he knows - there is no proximity. We should not see the enemy in another person. The son wanted to kill his mother, not realizing that the situation was so bad, and he himself was making it worse.
In urban environments there are many single athletes. Outstanding singles athletes have before their eyes someone who needs to be beaten in order to become better. This requires victory over the enemy. You need to look carefully - when Spica acts, and when Arcturus (history).
11) Acrux (constellation - Southern Cross). We can't see the Southern Hemisphere. GD is visible 30g.
Associated with esoteric sciences, consciousness. Good for astrologers, everything related to nature and esotericism.
11gr.52min. Scorpio - exaltation of Uranus.
12) Agena (constellation - Centaurus (Centaur)
β – Agena 23g.48min. Scorpio
... 29gr.29min. Scorpio
α –Toliman
Half-humans, half-gods - centaurs. They are impudent, rude, and rape women. The exception is Chiron. (See the history of the Centaurus constellation). Another story. That the centaurs took the wine from Hercules and he rushed after them. Chiron was wise and... to save his friend, he gave him poison for the arrows. And by chance, Hercules’ arrow hit Chiron’s leg. Chiron suffered greatly from his illness and was looking for a cure. To be cured, but nothing helped. Prometheus also suffered from an eagle pecking at his liver. And then Chiron asked Zeus to take his life in the name of Prometheus, that is, to give his life to Prometheus. Zeus agreed.
MORAL: You cannot turn your knowledge into evil. Your friend can hurt you.
The stars of this constellation give the ability to create medicine, but this should not result in harm to others, even enemies. At a higher level, there is help to people.
13) Antares (constellation - Scorpio) - guardian of the west.
(Ant - against. Ares - war).
α – Antares 9gr.46min. Sagittarius
Responsible for business, good luck, travel to the west. In the negative, it can cause contract killing, murder out of jealousy, and the evil eye.
14) Vega (constellation Lyra).
α – Vega 15gr.19min. Capricorn
The story of Orpheus. (See the history of the Lyra constellation).
MORAL: Vega and Lyra are responsible for artistic inclination and scientific abilities. Nature helped Orpheus when playing. It gives a penchant for research. Vega dulls the emotional sphere (not good for love and family relationships), but is very good for science.
15) Altair (constellation – Eagle)
α – Altair 1gr.47min. Capricorn
(See the history of the constellation Eagle).
The eagle raised Ganymede up to Zeus, but there is a function - to steal and carry away, to organize violence against the will of another (he pecked at Prometheus's liver for 300 years).
This star is associated with flights (airplanes). The opportunity to steal something (theft of people, children).
16) Fomalhaut (constellation - Southern Pisces) - guardian of the south.
α – Fomalhaut 0g.52min. Pisces
He talks about family. God Set killed the god Osiris - dismembered him and scattered him into pieces. The piece fell into the mouth of the Southern Fish. Therefore, she carries within herself something unusual, gifted, talented, some abilities (from God within).
This is the ability to be creative, especially artistic.
17) Deneb (constellation – Cygnus)
α – Deneb 15g.20min. Pisces - tail
Zeus was a swan when he seduced Nemesis (Leda) and the beautiful Helen was born. (See the history of the constellation Cygnus).
18) Achernar (constellation - Eridanus) - the end of the underground river
α – Achernar 15g.19min. Pisces
The constellation is associated with Phaethon (son of the God Helios). He was small. Unprepossessing. And no one believed it. That he is the son of Helios. He asked his father to give him his chariot for a ride. The father did not want to give, but in the end he agreed. Phaeton got into a chariot with 5 horses, and they carried him very close to the ground. Everything on the ground began to burn out. Phaeton was unable to control the chariot and nearly burned the earth.
Helios had to remove Phaeton, and he fell into an underground river. And the place where the horses burned the earth is now the Sahara. The Eridanus River is now the Po River. The nature of the constellation is negative - Saturn.
The exception is the nature of the Achernar River - this is Jupiter - nature, the end of the river. The end of a difficult situation.
MORAL: The end of a difficult genetic situation. The river of blood has been passed, where everything ends.
If a person wears a star, he is the last in his family. Because the karma of the family ends. He often takes upon himself the entire situation and the karma of the family no longer exists. This is the place of the river. Where the river flows into the ocean. Neva goes into the ocean.
19) Shedar (constellation Cassiopeia). This is the constellation of Mars. If there are female planets there, they may be from Cassiopeia. You need to see the history. They can betray, falling from a height (Hella), especially the betrayal of a friend.
20) Hamal (constellation Aries)
α – Hamal 7g.40min. Taurus - head
Military organizations, strong people. (See the history of the constellation Aries).

Constellations - These are areas of the sky into which the celestial sphere is distributed in order to conveniently navigate the starry sky. In ancient times, constellations were various kinds of figures that were formed by bright stars, often these were the names of heroes of Greek mythology. Our entire starry sky is divided into 88 constellations, which were recorded by the International Astronomical Union in 1930. To date, the names of these constellations have been decided to be considered unchanged, as well as other names of bright stars. Some famous astronomers named discovered stars after themselves, but such names were never officially recognized. There are some companies that sell so-called “certificates” for naming the name of the star you like. So if you think what to give your girlfriend on March 8 or Valentine's Day then give her a “star in the sky.”
Constellations are rightfully considered reminders of the ancient culture of mankind, its myths and its first interest in celestial bodies. They help historians, astronomers and mythologists very well to understand the way of life and thinking of ancient people. Today, constellations help bright minds in astronomy navigate the sky and quickly determine the positions of various kinds of objects.

Constellation and star map JPG
One of the best, in my opinion, star map. The equatorial part of the starry sky is built in a cylindrical projection, and the poles in an azimuthal one. Thanks to this, refractions at the junctions of these projections are reduced to a minimum amount, but do not be surprised that some constellations are seen twice: on the maps of the poles and the equatorial one. presented as an image in jpg format in fairly high resolution. 
Google Sky constellation and star map
An interactive map of the sky, stars, constellations and galaxies that has no equal. A lot of work has been done, and from a huge number of photographs taken by the Hubble orbital telescope, a map of the entire starry sky has been compiled, by increasing the scale of which you can see the starry sky, which is in no way visible not only with the naked eye, but also in an optical telescope from Earth. Besides this constellation map makes it possible to collect starry sky in constellations, look at their historical images, as well as take a tour of our solar system, examine the sky in the invisible infrared and microwave spectra. 
Google Sky
Map of constellations and starry sky from Google Earth service (Google Earth)
Taking Google Sky and Google Map as a basic basis, Google programmers and artists went even further and created a browser program that, connecting to a single database via the Web, downloads maps of the Earth and star maps, as well as more maps of the Moon and Mars. The Google Earth project is booming and open to anyone who wants to contribute. For example, you can apply constellation map a three-dimensional model of your own objects, if someone else has not already done this. The service also allows you to record videos based on the map, add voice or musical accompaniment to them and save it as a video file.

Constellation and star map Photopic Sky Survey
Another fascinating, cool, interactive starry sky project with easy navigation. Just like in the previous case with Google Earth, constellation map obtained by combining a large number of real 5-megapixel photographs into one picture and obtaining circular panorama of stars and constellations.It is possible to display a layer with connected constellation features on top, however, unlike Google Sky and Google Earth, the image cannot be saved. 
Not everyone knows the names of stars and constellations, but many have heard the most popular ones.
Constellations are expressive star groups, and the names of stars and constellations contain special magic.
The information that tens of thousands of years ago, even before the emergence of the first civilizations, people began to give them names does not raise any doubts. Space is filled with heroes and monsters from legends, and the skies of our northern latitudes are mainly populated by characters from the Greek epic.
Photos of constellations in the sky and their names
48 ancient constellations - decoration of the celestial sphere. Each one has a legend associated with it. And it’s not surprising - stars played a big role in people’s lives. Navigation and large-scale agriculture would be impossible without a good knowledge of celestial bodies.
Of all the constellations, the non-setting ones are distinguished, located at 40 degrees latitude or higher. Residents of the northern hemisphere always see them, regardless of the time of year.
5 main non-setting constellations in alphabetical order - The Dragon, Cassiopeia, Ursa Major and Minor, Cepheus . They are visible all year round, especially well in the south of Russia. Although at northern latitudes the circle of non-setting stars is wider.
It is important that the objects of the constellations are not necessarily located nearby. To an observer on earth, the surface of the sky appears flat, but in fact some stars are much further away than others. Therefore, it would be incorrect to write “the ship made a jump into the constellation Microscope” (there is such a thing in the southern hemisphere). “The ship can make a jump towards the Microscope” - that would be correct.
The brightest star in the sky
The brightest is Sirius in Canis Major. At our northern latitudes it is visible only in winter. One of the largest cosmic bodies closest to the sun, its light travels to us for only 8.6 years.
Among the Sumerians and ancient Egyptians he had the status of a deity. 3,000 years ago, Egyptian priests used the rise of Sirius to accurately determine the time of the Nile flood.
Sirius is a double star. The visible component (Sirius A) is approximately 2 times more massive than the Sun and shines 25 times more intensely. Sirius B is a white dwarf with nearly the mass of the sun, with a brightness of a quarter solar.
Sirius B is perhaps the most massive white dwarf known to astronomers. Ordinary dwarfs of this class are half as light.
Arcturus in Bootes is the brightest in northern latitudes and is one of the most unusual luminaries. Age – 7.3 billion years, almost half the age of the universe. With a mass approximately equal to the sun, it is 25 times larger, since it consists of the lightest elements - hydrogen, helium. Apparently, when Arcturus was formed, there were not so many metals and other heavy elements in the universe.
Like a king in exile, Arcturus moves through space surrounded by a retinue of 52 smaller stars. Perhaps they are all part of a galaxy that was swallowed up by our Milky Way a long, long time ago.
Arcturus is almost 37 light years away - also not so far, on a cosmic scale. It belongs to the class of red giants and shines 110 times stronger than the Sun. The picture shows the comparative sizes of Arcturus and the Sun.
Star names by color
The color of a star depends on temperature, and temperature depends on mass and age. The hottest are young, massive blue giants, with surface temperatures reaching 60,000 Kelvin and masses up to 60 solar. Class B stars are not much inferior, the brightest representative of which is Spica, alpha of the Virgo constellation.
The coldest ones are small, old red dwarfs. On average, the surface temperature is 2-3 thousand Kelvin, and the mass is a third of the sun. The diagram clearly shows how color depends on size.
Based on temperature and color, stars are divided into 7 spectral classes, indicated in the astronomical description of the object in Latin letters.
Beautiful names of stars
The language of modern astronomy is dry and practical; among the atlases you will not find stars with names. But ancient people named the brightest and most important night luminaries. Most of the names are of Arabic origin, but there are also those that go back to hoary antiquity, to the times of the ancient Akkadians and Sumerians.
Polar. Dim, the last one in the handle of the Little Dipper, a guiding sign for all sailors of antiquity. Polar hardly moves and always points north. Every people in the northern hemisphere has a name for it. “Iron stake” of the ancient Finns, “Tied horse” of the Khakass, “Hole in the sky” of the Evenks. The ancient Greeks, famous travelers and sailors, called the polar “Kinosura”, which translates as “dog’s tail”.
Sirius. The name apparently came from ancient Egypt, where the star was associated with the hypostasis of the goddess Isis. In ancient Rome it was called Vacation, and our “vacation” comes directly from this word. The fact is that Sirius appeared in Rome at dawn, in the summer, on the days of the greatest heat, when the life of the city froze.
Aldebaran. In its movement it always follows the Pleiades cluster. In Arabic it means "follower". The Greeks and Romans called Aldebaran "Eye of the Calf".
The Pioneer 10 probe, launched in 1972, is heading directly towards Aldebaran. Estimated time of arrival is 2 million years.
Vega. Arab astronomers called it “Falling Eagle” (An nahr Al wagi). From the distorted “wagi”, that is, “falling”, the name Vega came. In ancient Rome, the day it crossed the horizon before sunrise was considered the last day of summer.
Vega was the first star (after the Sun) to be photographed. This happened almost 200 years ago in 1850, at the Oxford Observatory.
Betelgeuse. The Arabic designation is Yad Al Juza (hand of the twin). In the Middle Ages, due to confusion in translation, the word was read as "Bel Juza" and "Betelgeuse" arose.
Science fiction writers love the star. One of the characters in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy comes from a small planet in the Betelgeuse system.
Fomalhaut. Alpha Southern Pisces. In Arabic it means “Fish Mouth”. The 18th brightest night luminary. Archaeologists have discovered evidence of the veneration of Fomalhaut back in the prehistoric period, 2.5 thousand years ago.
Canopus. One of the few stars whose name does not have Arabic roots. According to the Greek version, the word goes back to Canopus, the helmsman of King Menelaus.
The planet Arrakis, from the famous series of books by F. Herbert, revolves around Canopus.
How many constellations are there in the sky
As it was established, people united stars into groups 15,000 years ago. In the first written sources, i.e. 2 millennia ago, 48 constellations are described. They are still in the sky, only the big Argo no longer exists - it was divided into 4 smaller ones - Stern, Sail, Keel and Compass.
Thanks to the development of navigation, new constellations began to appear in the 15th century. Bizarre figures decorate the sky - Peacock, Telescope, Indian. The exact year when the last of them appeared is known - 1763.
At the beginning of the last century, a general revision of the constellations took place. Astronomers counted 88 star groups - 28 in the northern hemisphere and 45 in the southern. The 13 constellations of the zodiac belt stand apart. And this is the final result; astronomers do not plan to add new ones.
Constellations of the northern hemisphere - list with pictures
Unfortunately, you cannot see all 28 constellations in one night; celestial mechanics are inexorable. But in return we have a pleasant variety. Winter and summer skies look different.
Let's talk about the most interesting and noticeable constellations.
Big Dipper- the main landmark of the night sky. With its help it is easy to find other astronomical objects.
tip of the tail Ursa Minor- the famous North Star. Celestial bears have long tails, unlike their earthly relatives.
The Dragon- a large constellation between Ursa. It is impossible not to mention μ Dragon, which is called Arrakis, which means “dancer” in ancient Arabic. Kuma (ν Draco) is double, which can be observed with ordinary binoculars.
It is known that ρ Cassiopeia – supergiant, it is hundreds of thousands of times brighter than the Sun. In 1572, the last explosion to date occurred in Cassiopeia.
The ancient Greeks did not come to a consensus whose Lyra. Different legends give it to different heroes - Apollo, Orpheus or Orion. The notorious Vega enters Lyra.
Orion- the most noticeable astronomical formation in our sky. The large stars in Orion's belt are called the Three Kings or Magi. The famous Betelgeuse is located here.
Cepheus can be seen all year round. In 8,000 years, one of its stars, Alderamin, will become the new polar star.
IN Andromeda lies the M31 nebula. This is a nearby galaxy, visible to the naked eye on a clear night. The Andromeda nebula is 2 million light years away from us.
A beautiful constellation name Veronica's hair owes it to the Egyptian queens who sacrificed her hair to the gods. In the direction of Coma Berenices is the north pole of our galaxy.
Alpha Bootes- the famous Arcturus. Beyond Bootes, at the very edge of the observable universe, lies the galaxy Egsy8p7. This is one of the most distant objects known to astronomers - 13.2 billion light years away.
Constellations for children - all the fun
Curious young astronomers will be interested in learning about the constellations and seeing them in the sky. Parents can arrange a night excursion for their children, talking about the amazing science of astronomy and seeing some of the constellations with their own eyes together with the children. These short and understandable stories will surely appeal to little researchers.
Ursa Major and Ursa Minor
In ancient Greece, the gods turned everyone into animals and threw anyone into the sky. That's how they were. One day, the wife of Zeus turned a nymph named Callisto into a bear. And the nymph had a little son who knew nothing about the fact that his mother had become a bear.
When the son grew up, he became a hunter and went to the forest with a bow and arrow. And it so happened that he met a mother bear. When the hunter raised his bow and shot, Zeus stopped time and threw everyone together - the bear, the hunter and the arrow into the sky.
Since then, the Big Dipper has been walking across the sky together with the little one, into whom the hunter son has turned. And the arrow also remains in the sky, only it will never hit anywhere - such is the order in the sky.
The Big Dipper is always easy to find in the sky, it looks like a large ladle with a handle. And if you found the Big Dipper, it means the Little Dipper is walking nearby. And although Ursa Minor is not so noticeable, there is a way to find it: the two outermost stars in the bucket will point in the exact direction to the polar star - this is the tail of Ursa Minor.
polar Star
All the stars are spinning slowly, only Polaris stands still. She always points to the north, for this she is called a guide.
In ancient times, people sailed on ships with large sails, but without a compass. And when the ship is on the open sea and the shores are not visible, you can easily get lost.
When this happened, the experienced captain waited until nightfall to see the North Star and find the north direction. And knowing the direction to the north, you can easily determine where the rest of the world is and where to sail to bring the ship to its home port.
The Dragon
Among the night luminaries in the sky lives a star dragon. According to legend, the dragon participated in the wars of the gods and titans at the very dawn of time. The goddess of war, Athena, in the heat of battle, took and threw a huge dragon into the sky, just between the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper.
The Dragon is a large constellation: 4 stars form its head, 14 form its tail. Its stars are not very bright. This must be because the Dragon is already old. After all, a lot of time has passed since the dawn of time, even for the Dragon.
Orion
Orion was the son of Zeus. In his life he accomplished many feats, became famous as a great hunter, and became the favorite of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. Orion loved to boast of his strength and luck, but one day he was stung by a scorpion. Artemis rushed to Zeus and asked to save her pet. Zeus threw Orion into the sky, where the great hero of ancient Greece still lives.
Orion is the most remarkable constellation in the northern sky. It is large and consists of bright stars. In winter, Orion is completely visible and easy to find: look for a large hourglass with three bright bluish stars in the middle. These stars are called Orion's belt and their names are Alnitak (left), Alnilam (middle) and Mintak (right).
Knowing Orion, it is easier to navigate the other constellations and find stars.
Sirius
Knowing the position of Orion, you can easily find the famous Sirius. You need to draw a line to the right of Orion's belt. Just look for the brightest star. It is important to remember that it is visible in the northern sky only in winter.
Sirius is the brightest in the sky. It is part of the constellation Canis Major, the faithful satellite of Orion.
There are actually two stars in Sirius, circling each other. One star is hot and bright, we see its light. And the other half is so dim that you can’t see it with a regular telescope. But once upon a time, many millions of years ago, these parts were one huge whole. If we lived in those times, Sirius would shine for us 20 times stronger!
Questions and answers section
Which star's name means "brilliant, sparkling"?
- Sirius. It is so bright that it can be seen even during the day.
What constellations can be seen with the naked eye?
- Everything is possible. Constellations were invented by ancient people, long before the invention of the telescope. In addition, without having a telescope with you, you can even see planets, for example, Venus, Mercury, etc.
Which constellation is the largest?
- Hydras. It is so long that it does not fit entirely in the northern sky and goes beyond the southern horizon. The length of Hydra is almost a quarter of the circumference of the horizon.
Which constellation is the smallest?
— The smallest, but at the same time the brightest, is the Southern Cross. It is located in the southern hemisphere.
What constellation is the Sun in?
The Earth revolves around the Sun, and we see how it passes through as many as 12 constellations per year, one for each month. They are called the Zodiac Belt.
Conclusion
The stars have long fascinated people. And although the development of astronomy allows us to look further into the depths of space, the charm of the ancient names of stars does not go away.
When we look into the night sky, we see the past, ancient myths and legends, and the future - because one day people will go to the stars.
