late autumn evenings, it s sometimes blocked

00:13.913 --> 00:19.252 align:left position:72.5% line:83% size:17.5%
by buildings, trees, or even the curve of our
planet that is totally normal this time of year.

00:19.352 --> 00:23.823 align:left position:12.5% line:83% size:77.5%
The Big Dipper is part of the
constellation Ursa Major - the Great Bear.

00:23.923 --> 00:28.228 align:left position:75% line:83% size:15%
Incredibly, the Iroquios people of the Great
Lakes and all points east -- also saw a bear!

00:28.328 --> 00:33.099 align:left position:72.5% line:83% size:17.5%
But instead of the dipper as part of a greater
bear they saw three hunters chasing a bear!

00:33.199 --> 00:36.069 align:left position:12.5% line:83% size:77.5%
Each hunter has a tool: and if
you squint at the second star in

00:36.169 --> 00:40.040 align:left position:87.5% line:83% size:2.5%
the Dipper s handle - Mizar - you
can see the pot Alcor above it!

00:40.140 --> 00:46.613 align:left position:70% line:83% size:20%
The Iroquois tale says the leaves change to red
when the hunters catch the bear below the horizon!
