Pegasus the Flying Horse,
Andromeda the Princess, Pisces the Fish, Aries the Ram and Triangulum the
Triangle mark out a larger area of the Autumn Sky.

The Great Bear, Ursa Major
is more than just the bright seven stars marked in yellow but is a much
larger constellation and to my eyes (Paul) certainly looks like some four
legged animal.
|
Orion the Hunter
and Taurus the Bull dominate the late Autumn and Winter sky. Follow Orions
belt stars up to find Taurus glaring down at him.

Follow Orions belt
stars down to find the brightest star in the entire sky (other than the
Sun!), Sirius which dominates Canis Major, the Great Dog. Meanwhile Lepus
the Hare lies directly under Orion and is also shown in this view.
