Constellation of Capricornus - Constellation of Capricornus - Capricornus (the Sea Goat, Capricorn to astrologers) is one of the more surprising mythical creatures projected on the sky, a male goat with the tail of a fish. However, adjoining Aquarius and Piscis Austrinus, it is in a particularly watery part of the sky. The orientation of this strange creature is set by its brightest star, Deneb Algiedi (d Cap, the Goat's tail), while Algedi (or Giedi, a Cap) simply means goat or ibex. Although it is not particularly conspicuous the constellation is of ancient lineage, predating the ancient Greeks, perhaps because in ancient times the northern Winter Solstice occured in Capricornus. Because of precession, it is now in Aquarius though the idea is preserved in the Tropic of Capricorn which is the line around the northern hemisphere globe where the Sun is directly overhead at noon in mid - winter. Best seen in the early evening in September

Aquarius Constellations, Capricorn, Austral Fish and Microscope - Constellations of Aquarius, Capricorn, Piscis Austrinus, Microscopium - Field around the Aquarius constellation. The Helix planetary nebula appears as a red dot towards the center of the image. Aquarius (The Water Carrier) is a large but relatively insconspicuous southern zodiacal constellation and has an area of about 980 square degrees, which makes it the 10th largest. Its origins as a constellation can be traced back to Babylonian times and has usually been delineated as a figure pouring water from a jar in the general direction of Capricornus and Piscis Austrinus, themselves quite watery constellations. The Sun is in this part of the sky in February and March, following the Ecliptic. The constellation embraces many objects of telescopic interest, including the Helix nebula and the Mira - like variable star R Aquarii. Also notable are the globular clusters M2 (NGC 7089) and the Saturn planetary nebula NGC 7009. Best s

Group of galaxies HCG 87 in Capricorn - Hickson Compact Group 87 in Capricornus - Group of galaxies in interaction situated 400 million years ago - light from Earth. The largest of these galaxies (HCG 87a) is a spiral galaxy seen by the slice; it and its neighbor the elliptical galaxy HCG 87b probably have a central black hole. The third member of this group, the spiral galaxy HCG 87c appears to be in an active phase of star formation. Group of interacting galaxies located at about 400 million light - years. The largest galaxy member (HCG 87a), which is actually disk - shaped, but tilted so that we see it nearly edge - on and its elliptically shaped nearest neighbor (87b) have active galactic nuclei which are believed to harbor black holes that are consuming gas. A third group member, the nearby spiral galaxy 87c, may be undergoing a burst of active star formation. These three galaxies are so close to each other that gravitational forces disrupt their structure and alter their evolutio

Globular cluster M30 in Capricornus - Globular cluster M30 in Capricornus - The globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099) is located about 28,000 light years away from Earth. Globular clusters are generally peoples of very old stars, but here the Hubble space telescope has identified some young stars, blue stragglers. Messier 30 formed 13 billion years ago and was discovered in 1764 by Charles Messier. Located about 28 000 light - years away from Earth, this globular cluster - - a dense swarm of several hundred thousand stars - - is about 90 light - years across. Although globular clusters such as this one are mainly populated by old stars, the crowded field of stars leads to some old stars apparently reclaiming their youth in the form of blue stragglers. Researchers using data from Hubble's now - retired Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) have identified two types of blue stragglers in Messier 30: those that form in near head - on collisions with one another and those that are in twin (or bi

Aquarius Constellation - Constellation of Aquarius - Field around the Aquarius constelllation. The Helix planetary nebula appears as a red dot towards the center of the image. Aquarius (The Water Carrier) is a large but relatively insconspicuous southern zodiacal constellation and has an area of about 980 square degrees, which makes it the 10th largest. Its origins as a constellation can be traced back to Babylonian times and has usually been delineated as a figure pouring water from a jar in the general direction of Capricornus and Piscis Austrinus, themselves quite watery constellations. The Sun is in this part of the sky in February and March, following the Ecliptic. The constellation embraces many objects of telescopic interest, including the Helix nebula and the Mira - like variable star R Aquarii. Also notable are the globular clusters M2 (NGC 7089) and the Saturn planetary nebula NGC 7009. Best seen in the early evening in August

The Summer Triangle and Jupiter - Summer Triangle with Jupiter - Jupiter is in opposition in the constellation Capricorn. Located as close as possible to the Earth, it is powerful, much more than the Three Belles d'Ete that form the Great Triangle of Ete, namely Altair (in the Eagle) on the right of the centre, Vega (in the Lyre) higher and finally Deneb (in the Swan) on the left of Vega. To the left of Jupiter is Aquarius, the Little Horse has the vertical of Jupiter, then the Dauphin, the Fleche. August 18, 2009. Summer Triangle is an asterism made of three bright stars: Deneb (top left in Cygnus, Vega (top right in Lyra) and Altair (middle right in Aquila). Below, the brightest star is in fact a planet, Jupiter, seen on August 18 2009 during opposition

Conjunction Venus Neptune - Venus close to Neptune - On December 27, 2008, Venus and Neptune were in conjunction 1.5* each other in the northwest portion of the constellation of Capricorn. Venus's magnitude was -4.3 and Neptune's magnitude was 8, a luminosite ratio of almost one hundred thousand times. The weakest stars visible in the image are thirteenth magnitude, one hundred times less brilliant than Neptune. Conjunction Venus Neptune on December 27, 2008 in the constellation of Capricornus
