I really thank that because it is cold out this time of year that God put the best constellations in the winter sky to make it worth the braving the cold. I love the winter sky. You must take the time to find the constellations this time of year. Use the Orion Connection. Orion's, the Hunter's, left shoulder is the star Betelgeuse, a red giant with the magnitude of 0.8. It points up to the twin stars Pollux (1.15) and Castor (1.97) of Gemini. Gemini is another very bright constellation. The stars in Orion's belt point to three other very bright stars. The lower left star in his belt points to the brightest star in the northern hemisphere, Sirius (-1.45) of Canis Major. The middle star in Orion's belt points up to Capella (0.08), the bright star in the constellation Auriga. The third star in the belt of Orion points to Aldebaran (0.85) in Taurus. Aldebaran is the 'eye of the bull' but his shoulder is the star cluster, the Pleiades. These are beautiful constellations. You must not miss learning these. They will bring you pleasure all winter.
