Born and raised in Hawaii and only recently started star gazing. Arcturus was big and bright tonight and had to know more. Really appreciate happening upon your video and hearing about the Hokule’a and her connection to Arcturus. Well done!

@tizio13 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for this video! I’ve been taking a lot more night time walks and keep seeing this star right after sunset. Wonderful explanation and presentation!

@brookzera218 Год назад

U r realllyyyy good at this ! In Ethiopia Arcturus is very visible but from where I live never saw ursa minor ! but overall the view from the equator is just blissfully wonderful ! Add your well explained commentary to the mix and it all becomes super lovely ! I need friends like u to satisfy my ever exploding love for the stars above ! Thanks soò much anyway !

@ZotoZen Год назад

My home. Thanks for this insight. Arcturus came from a parallel universe through a portal and made the milky way it's home. So it's older than the milky way. There's feline beings, blue skin beings, it was a fairy world at one point. About 1.4% of earth population are Arcturians starseeds.

@kellytkachuk6497 3 месяца назад

This is fascinating. Thank you so much for all this information. It explains some of the dreams my friend, sister and myself are having. I know that sounds "LOOPY", but you now have another dedicated fan of your channel. Thank you again.

I noticed a blinking above a bright orange star tonight and curiosity led me to discover Arcturus and your channel. Thank you for a great video. I have just subscribed. Regards from South Africa

@erichowry9356 Год назад

Love this video. My best friend's favorite star is Arcturus! I always enjoy seeing this star!

@angelm888 Год назад

Thank you very much for your great explanation. I love to listen to this again and again.

@jmitch5161 Год назад

I just found your channel. So easy to understand. Looking forward to checking out the rest. Thankyou

@certifiedcertifier Год назад

Amazing channel.thank you for the constellation knowledge...I didn't know anything about the constellations- love it!

@hersv Год назад

I found this channel recently. It helps a lot on constellations and how to recognize them in night sky. The night sky is much more interesting to me if I can identify stars, constellations and know information about them. Thanks to the creator. 🎉🎉🎉

@POLLOTROM Год назад

I always wanted to find the Boötes Void but never tried hard. With this info I should find it very easy. Thank You.

@markmruczek4391 Год назад

Thank you for the great content. I always love watching any of your videos. Always so fascinating and informative. Recently I have used Arcturus as a focus star for astrophotography but love to learn about the constellations, and star patterns. Mark M from Houston.

@garylynz Год назад

I really like the way you explain. Thanks for all your videos.

@PerSvensson-pf3rm Месяц назад

Facing Arcturus and looking to the left you will find Vega and between these stars you will find Hercules and Corona Borealis two faint constellations but whenever the nights are clear I try to go out and with the camera get at least a couple of pictures of CB together with other constellations. Thanks Janine.

@brianSalem541 7 месяцев назад

Great video! Very helpful. Never knew how to easily find Arcturus until now.

@tannerwalle9234 Год назад

Great Video Janine. You are good ❤

@MyVisualRomance Год назад

This is allegedly where the Arcturians come from so they say.

@Calventius Год назад

Appreciate the briefing. It would also be interesting when you talk about individual stars to mention exoplanets found.

@jh5124 Год назад

That was very good. And your voice is very pleasant.

@vicstanfieldshire7754 3 месяца назад

I’m here because I’m trying to learn about the upcoming celestial event where 2 stars are converging within Corona Borealis. My son loves the sky and I will watching more of your videos with him!!

@BeBeautyFull55 8 месяцев назад

Yes, excellent. Love ARCTURUS❤.

@apextroll Год назад

You taught us well. When I read the title of the video, I knew to arc to Arcturus.😄

@zoidberg444 22 дня назад

Interesting - I was under the impression K type stars lived double the life span of our sun. I find it interesting that its already in the end stages of its life even though its only 2 billion years older than our sun. Interesting watching these videos and brushing up on my astronomy. I haven't had the chance to do any since I was a teenager.

@MountainFisher Год назад

I like Arcturus as it is easy to find and on a good seeing night as it helps me find M3 a globular cluster.

The Herdsman is protecting the Greater and Lesser Sheepfolds (aka the big and little bears, dippers, plowshears). I think the Sheepfold names are more harmonious with the shepherd and makes sense with an Ancient Near East origin. _The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want._ _He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters._ _He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake._ _Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me._ _Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over._ _Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever._ - Psalm 23, A Psalm of David, KJV

I'm in Bosnia, I was wondering what the bright flickering thing in the sky was. I wish I had a telescope, I only use binoculars to look at it. Looks amazing, it's the brightest star in the sky I can see from here

Job 38:30 The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen. 31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? 32 Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons? 33 Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth? 34 Canst thou lift up thy voice to the clouds, that abundance of waters may cover thee? 35 Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here we are?

@ColdBrewNitro Год назад

i’ve heard of spike to spica and I think that works better with arc to arcturus hehe

hey....thank you....i always thought the bootes region was vast dead space...or am i getting this wrong?

@david8905 Год назад

Janine - If an Arcturian were to look for our solar system and planet Earth in their night sky, what would it look like to them?

@mariecmcleodsterk3402 Год назад

What is the triangle constellation

@Dat550go Год назад

Hi 👋. A few things: 1) i thought Sirius was the brightest star, after the sun? 2) Do you have any information on Lyra? 3) How can this star Arcturus be brighter than the sun, but yet we can't see it when the sun is shining? Lastly, can you help me figure out a way for me to get back to where I'm originally from? If so, I'll let you meet my mom and dad. ✨️

@kevanhubbard9673 Год назад

I spotted Arcturus last night in the west but we will lose it soon to the winter stars as it'll drop under the northern horizon.In SciFi the planet Trantor orbited Arcturus capital of Isaac Asimov 's Galactic Empire in his Foundation trilogy.

@KuKMatoNeu59473 4 месяца назад

Currently seeing Arcturus over Poland, sadly Betelguese disappeared

@KuKMatoNeu59473 4 месяца назад

Slight correction, Betelguese and The Orion Belt are both visible, but at 18:30 local time

I would like to hear the story about the shepherd who protects bears. He's protecting the bears from the Canes Venetici, it looks like, but why doesn't he let the dogs loose to drive the bears away?
