This is one of those special constellations that is difficult for viewers to see. Perhaps modern man is bombarded with so much visual content that describing a pair of greyhounds by just observing an eye in each of them is not intuitive. It makes me wonder how did the original person discern this constellation, and even more amazing, convince other people that it was representing a pair of dogs. From the list of really great objects I would like to see, M3 is probably in the top 10. I really enjoy your videos; keep up the great work.

I've experienced this before. I saw the Big Dipper and I found another bright star. Thanks for the clue, Janine! ❤️

I would just like to say Thank You ! No doubt you have a great love for this and for the education of others .

Fantastic video, I didn´t know anything about Canes Venatici constellation, this constellation is one of the most interesting because we can see several objects such as galaxies, globular clusters, voids, etcetera.

I haven't had your videos recommended in a while but they just came up today. ^_^ Very fun! With the weather warming up, I'll try to keep an eye out.

I find your videos very easy to absorb and remember. I have actually learned more from your videos than any other and that includes books PS you should show photos of the galaxies etc taken with amateur telescopes and not the Hubble. Thanks 🙏🏻

@learnthesky 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your feedback. Yes, I should add more realistic views of what galaxies would look like without the super magnification of the Hubble. I can't help it...I just love those photos!!!

Wow I love your channel! It's like a miniseries on all the constellations. Good place to start for anyone who's into backyard astronomy

Please explain the southern constellations too! Your explanations are one of the best.

The constellation of La Superba, TON 618, and the Whirlpool Galaxy! It's a small constellation but an interesting one for sure.

M106 looks like a galaxy collision's final stages? Could be, but I'm not astronomer and so wouldn't know reasons why it would not be an old collision. I was looking at M3 just last night, simply just wandering down from Bootes. I went, "What have we here?" Looked around and figured out I was near Canes Venatici on my planisphere, I had my 6" at 30x wide view and the cluster was obvious and I switched to wide angle Barlow 50x and it looked great. Any greater power and it was just pretty much the center.

Amazing video, small question: Do the Andromeda and Pegasus constellations share a star or any celestial objects?? Or maybe it's just me because those two constellations are right next to each other...

@learnthesky 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, Andromeda and Pegasus share a star. Other than that one star, they do not share anything else.

The correct pronunciation is /ˈkā-ˌneez-və-ˈna-tə-ˌsī/

Good point. What's more, the pronunciation doesn't really depend on where you are located (Canada, Australia, etc). It's just that in most other languages people rarely use Latin names. However, we use them in English as the main names for constellations. Yes, the correct pronunciation is /ˈkā-ˌneez-və-ˈna-tə-ˌsī/ It's certainly not chee at the end. It's not ecclesiastical Latin!

I wish I had your brain for astronomy on my shoulders. I found a superior star gazing mountain to pick your brain 99.9% light pollution free.

Or you can also pronounce the "I" at the end of "ventici" long and the c pronounce it soft.
