『High Score』What stars can be seen in Foshan, Guangdong on Valentine's Day 2009?

The coordinates of Foshan are 113°06′E, 23°02′N, which means that not only can you see the northern constellations, but you can also see most of the southern constellations. I will use February 14th at 11pm For example, from 12 o'clock to 12 o'clock, let's pick a few representative ones to talk about: The bright stars that can be seen mainly include Betelgeuse and Rigel in Orion; Sirius in Canis Major, Procyon in Canis Minor; Pollux in Gemini 2. Castor; as well as Aldebaran in Taurus, Capella in Auriga, and of course Canopus Carinae, the second brightest star in the sky near the South Pole. At low altitude in the north, you can see Ursa Major (

) where the Big Dipper is located. The tip of the tail of Ursa Minor at low altitude below Ursa Major is the Polar Star. In the low altitude of the southern sky (near the horizon) and about 50° above the southern horizon (

) are Canopus and Sirius, the brightest stars in the sky. (This is with a simulated painting of the constellations

) Near Sirius is the most gorgeous constellation Orion in the sky. It is easy to find the bright Rigel stars, forming a large box (

) Orion’s shoulders are Betelgeuse, the largest red supergiant star on winter nights, and the soles of Orion’s feet are Rigel, the largest blue supergiant star in the sky (it’s easier to understand by looking at this picture

) In the southwest near Orion At low altitude is the famous Pleiades star cluster in Taurus (in the corner box

) connecting Betelgeuse to the Pleiades star cluster. At 3/5 of the distance in the middle is the first-magnitude bright star Aldebaran. Diagonally above is the first-magnitude bright star Capella (you can see this picture

) and Gemini directly above Taurus. The heads of Gemini are the two echoing Pollux and Castor

There are many legends and stories in this, it is difficult to tell them one by one. I will briefly mention a few. You can search it online yourself. It is best to buy a copy of "The World of Constellations". Xinhua Bookstore should sell it. Blue-black cover. The love legends published by Liaoning Education Press are a bit far-fetched, because most of the Greek myths and legends involve the love affairs of Lord Zeus. There is also the love tragedy of Orion. Orion, the son of Poseidon, the sea god, and Artemis, the moon god (also the goddess of hunting), fell in love, but the moon god’s brother, the sun god Apollo, thought that the god of the lower world was insulting to the family and planned to kill him. Orion.

Later Orion and his faithful hound Sirius (with a puppy) ascended to the sky together and became the brightest and most gorgeous sky area (Winter Triangle). There is also the legend of the Pleiades (Seven Sisters). There is more than one version, the specific poster can check it himself
