HELLO GEEKS OF THE SKY TRACE HERE.

THERE ARE SO MANY CONSTELLATIONS ABOVE US.
THE BEST WAY TO FIND A NEW CONSTELLATION IS

TO STAR HOP FROM ONE WE KNOW TO WHAT WE RE
LEARNING TODAY, LET S FIND LEO THE LION.

HIT THE SKIES AROUND EIGHT THIRTY AND FIND
THE BIG DIPPER ASTERISM IN THE NORTHEAST.

THIS IS PART OF URSA MAJOR, THE
GREAT BEAR. IF YOU WERE TO USE THE

STARS OF THE BOWL OF THE DIPPER AND DRAW
A LINE TO YOUR RIGHT TO FIND BRIGHT STAR,

REGULUS, AT THE BOTTOM OF WHAT
LOOKS LIKE A BACKWARD QUESTION MARK!

THAT S THE FRIENDLY FELINE FACE OF LEO THE LION!

THE MARK, CALLED THE SICKLE IS THE HEAD, AND
THE STAR TRIANGLE BELOW IT IS LEO S RUMP.

LEO HAS BEEN THOUGHT OF AS A
LION IN THE WEST SINCE ANTIQUITY;

ASTRONOMERS IN CHINA USED THE SICKLE
AS PART OF XUANYUAN THE YELLOW DRAGON.

A POWERFUL CONSTELLATION NO MATTER WHERE
YOU STAND. ENJOY, AND KEEP LOOKIN UP!
