@boomerbear7596 5 лет назад

I see these constellations most every night. Kicking back and looking at the night sky is my favorite way of unwinding and preparing for a good night's sleep.

@learnthesky 5 лет назад

I agree, laying under the stars is the best way to get to sleep. When my kids have trouble falling asleep, we will go outside and view the stars. Thank you for your comment.

Very interesting honestly Ursa Minor And Major are my personal favorite constellations

@sebx4skydiver112 2 года назад

My personal favorite constellation is an Orion for me.... 'cause you can't to see it in night sky in my country for all od year and I like a face of this constellation. It's likes a arrow and a few stars.... (Execuse me for my English, it is not my mother language)

@QueenYak 5 месяцев назад

I would hope you would always be honest with us...

@Jojo-nr9ov 4 года назад

@sebx4skydiver112 2 года назад

In my country (Czech republic) it's possible to see an Ursa Minor by own your eyes. Not 3 stars, you can see about 5 or 6 stars.

@soundmindandbody4186 2 года назад

in my country Philippines I think I found Ursa Minor in East side by compass. It looks like a small short kite

From where I live I have to go 10 miles West out of t0wn to see the Little Dipper's stars except Polaris. I enjoy watching your videos along with the Stellarium night sky software. It really helps me to plan my stargazing for the evening.

@danielreyesvasquez7113 4 года назад

Polaris is Ursa Minor brightest star but in Ursa Major, Dubhe (Alpha), Merak (Beta) and Mizar (Zeta) while they are some of the brighter star of Ursa Major and form the asterism of the Big Dipper along with the other four stars, the brightest star in Ursa Major is Alioth (Epsilon).

@learnthesky 4 года назад

Yes, you are correct! Thank you for sharing.

@bryanharoldfuller1441 5 лет назад

That's the exact story except it's originally Greek and Arcas is the namesake of the planet Arcturus. But if you replace Jupiter with Zeus and Juno with Hera you get the full true story and it ended at the end of this lycaon the grandfather killed arcus and tried to feed him to Zeus to see if Zeus was omniscience in his knowing which he was he couldn't be tricked and he turned lycaon into the wolf and then brought Arcus back to life and made the constellations for them there's a minor in Ursa Major Arcus became the great red bear the chief of Blackfoot of Northern California and he brought the wolf and the bear to Merrick and being descended from Cain we're also gifted the dog first companion and the mannoch eat

@bryanharoldfuller8877 4 года назад

The Dipper the handle of the Dipper which at the end of it is the North Starwhat's the Dipper circles around and can be located in the four directionals through the four that is where the true origin of the swastika symbol image comes that the Nazis ended up taking and corrupting.

@learnthesky 4 года назад

I have read about this before as well. It’s a shame that a symbol that dates back far in civilization was corrupted in such a way.

I have a query that in Ursa minor you are saying that it have only 7 star and in Ursa major is also have 7 star tell me the correct answer please

@MuteblDMZ 4 года назад

How in the world can you make a bear out of these

@TheTrafficTroll Месяц назад

I understand why Polaris never appears to move on a given night, but does it move (at least just a little) as Earth travels around the sun? There is a significant distance between Earth's positions between, say, the summer and winter solstices.

I think I found Ursa Minor, its in the East side. It looks like a short kite. Im from Philippines near the Equator

@uraniumzilla2614 3 года назад

You said... “The Big Dipper in this smaller constellation.” Did you get confused?

@learnthesky 3 года назад

I think what I was trying to say is the the Big Dipper asterism is a smaller pattern inside the larger constellation of Ursa Major. 🙂

@aliasqaraghchelou3411 5 лет назад

why it is seen all year long ?

@learnthesky 5 лет назад

These two constellations can be seen all year round in the northern hemisphere because they sit so close to the northern celestial pole, so they never sink below the horizon.

Hera never-married Zeus do you know who was Hera never-married Jupiter who was Zeus even though Hera is supposedly the goddess of marriage, she refused to marry Zeus. The daughter of Zeus but not Hera , the Huntress Artemis and her Brother Apollo were children of Zeus Leto. Artemis had a group of huntresses loyal to her. Zeus ended up falling in love with one of them calisto who also fell in love with Zeus. Artemis said nothing because the child that Calisto ended up carrying was a sibling of hers. King Lycaon of Arcadia , Calisto's Father Threw a feast and tried to deceive Zeus by killing Arcas Calistos Son, Whom he did not know who the father was, so he didn't have any care for a bastard heir. To test Zeus's omnipotence, he tried feeding Arcas to Zeus. Zeus knew right away that it was his son Arcas, and in retaliation he killed all 49 of King Lycaon's sons, and then in the legend he turned Lycaon into a Wolf. Afterwards Zeus restore Arcas back to life, and in doing so gave away the secret that the boy was his. That was what infuriated and she retaliated but she couldn't punish the boy or Zeus, so she turned Callisto into a bear as so she would have to watch her son grow up with him never knowing who she was. As Arcas grew up and became king of Arcadia, he also became known as a great Hunter, and was known as Arturis the Bear King.when he was out hunting one day he came across a bear who raised up on its back legs like it was coming at him to attack him not knowing that it was Callisto coming towards him to hug him. And before he was able to fire an arrow and shoot her Zeus interrupted andthat is where Legends of Ursa Major Ursa Minor come from it is said that he turned them into the constellations to protect them from the wrath of. Arcas became known as The the King of the Star System Arcturus. The Arcturians eventually became the colonizers of Orion starthe legend of Orion grew from The legend of Arcas and Calisto and Artemis. There is much more to the legend but I won't go into it right now.
