Find North with the Stars - The Summer Triangle - Celestial Navigation (Northern Hemisphere) 

All the stars at night are big & bright 👏👏👏 deep in the heart of Texas.

5:19 "it is visible at the date of this upload" omg Alfie you freaking crack me up man.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

Bro love these videos. You gotta keep it up man! Love to hear more about the northern hemisphere sky. Definitely subscribed for life now. haha

Hello, Alfie Aesthetics. I like all the videos made by you that I have watched so far (I have watched more than fifteen of them) I like specially the series of videos you have dedicated to celestial navigation. Your videos are very well organized, etc. From my point of view, you have shown that you are a professional youtuber. "A crack", in other words. Since you have written that your subscribers can make suggestions about ideas for more videos, my suggestion is the following: + “The Milky Way” as a device for celestial navigation and a means of locating useful constellations. I mean that “The Milky Way” [also known as “The Spilled Breastmilk”] has been used in order to find important constellations (from the Northern Celestial Pole to the Southern Celestial Pole). Imagine that you are lost in the wilderness at night and you can see the night sky showing all its magnificence (even the weakest star lights appear above you). It would be useful to know how to use “The Milky Way” in order to find important constellations [Those constellations can then be used in order to find the direction towards the North and South] For example, > In the Northern Hemisphere * “Cassiopeia” has “The Milky Way” as a background. *Part of the "Summer Triangle" has “The Milky Way” as a background. * As far as I am concerned, pilgrims throughout Europe used “The Milky Way” as a Celestial Navigation device in order to find (follow) the way to Santiago de Compostela (that is situated in the North-western corner of the Iberian Paeninsula). They made such a journey on foot (with a lot of patience…, of course) > On the Equator: * Part of the "Winter Triangle" has “The Milky Way” as a background. > In the Southern Hemisphere * The same happens with “Sagitarius” (The Archer) * “The Scorpion” has “The Milky Way” as a background. * “The Great Ship Argo” almost seems to follow “The Milky Way” as if it were a white river, so to speak. * Last, but not least, “The Southern Cross” and the pointers (which form part of the constellation of “The Centaur”) have “The Milky Way” as a background. [Once upon a time in which the constellation of “The Southern Cross” was considered a leg of the Constellation of “The Centaur”] I hope that this suggestion (A video about “The Milky Way” as a device of Celestial Navigation and as a means of locating useful constellations) [ and the ideas related to it] help you make a good video. That is to say, another good video as the ones you usually make. One of the Sky maps I have consulted has the following reference (or name) in the internet: The Ancient Greek Sky tumblr_mcbaof6Dyw1qbh26io1_1280.png I think that you will agree with me that “The Spilled Breastmilk” is a good topic (and title) for a video in youtube. Ja, ja, ja! :D In my opinion, you have the ability, experience and other qualities that are necessary to make a video of that kind. You have shown that you are able to combine serious data (knowledge) and entertainment in order to make a useful and interesting video. What do you think about that? Changing now the first topic of this message, I would like to ””talk”” about the following idea related to Celestial Navigation [I read the following piece of information in a book that is a sky atlas]: It is possible to use two stars < a and ß > of the Square of the constellation of Pegasus (The Winged Horse) in order to find the star Polaris [ In fact, that line is a continuation of the very same line that is used with “The Great Dipper” (“Ursa Maior) in order to find the star Polaris]. That same line can be prolonged towards the south in order to find the star named “Fomalhaut” in the Southern Hemisphere. Thank you very much for making and uploading so many good videos. I would like you to answer to this message and tell me your opinion about the suggestions that have been written here. I am looking forward to reading (hearing, etc.) your response. You can take your time, of course. Thank you for reading this message (or comment). It is so long that one has to read it step by step. Peace and best wishes.

As always, I get great enjoyment from you. I highly appreciate you & your content. You rock dude! (Even though your hard-on USA🇺🇸, but then again, so is the rest of the world, including myself/even though I wasn't born in the USA)

You are so damn entertaining!! I would love listening to your wisdom even if I wasn't interested in astrophotography. Thanks for making it fun!

Ha ha ha haaaaa, this stuffs wonderful and spoken in a way that I fully understand. Did I find it educational? You bet your arse I did...!

6:03 “Astronomy is fucking cool”, truer words

Nice one

Alfie - what's the program you use to track the stars on your vids?

Bravo!

Alfie can u plz do more aesthetics videos in nature? I love watching them. When i first found u i watched all of your videos in one night.

1:34 *before the reveal _Desperate searching_ *Just after reveal *"You can't mistaken ...."* _Quickly looking at the engraved, and righteous triangle, shamed and with the hope Alfie didn't saw it_ 😂

I don't understand why some people (6 people) indicate that they don´t like this video about "The Summer Triangle" as a means of celestial navigation in order to find North [the star Polaris] (in the Northern hemisphere) In my opinion, they should (at least) write a comment to indicate what they think that can be improved or changed in this video. That is to say, they should share their suggestions. Maybe, they don´t like the sense of humor shown in this video (but I don´t know whether that is the case) I think that the sense of humor shown in this video is well chosen as an ingredient in order to make the topic of the video more entertaining. That is my point of view.

2:01 Hilarious

Right on. This knowledge has nearly been lost with this generation. Thanks for reviving it! And keeping that dam thing real! Lol

these videos are so damn good

I saw the Summer Triangle today

I love your accent.

Today I saw three stars forming and moving one behind one from eastward to northward and then form a equilateral triangle and then disappear one by one

Alfie mate, can you give us a video on what bags you use?

Bakemonogatari taught me this.

:-D 1:58 this was just marvelous :-DDDD

How to tell what month it is by the zodiac contilations?

I know more about space then about anyone in my middle school, and I’m learning constellations I never heard about. Do you have lessons that I can go to?

I'm sure I'll spot summer triangle but I'm not sure if I'll do in the middle of a forest of snowy pines
