    This Corona Borealis constellation really is beautiful even if it is the northern crown of the spring Skies👑😎👍

  • @DonRamon_SeuMadruga_52231

    One of the most magnificent constellations, here in Southern Brazil we see it upside down from the photo like if it's really put on top of something.
    Fun fact: Alphecca, from the arabic "al-Nair al-Fakka" meaning the "bright one of the broken", because the pattern is "broken" in half as a C is an eclipsing binary, where two star orbit each other, one passing in front of the other and decreasing the system brightness. It's really amazing!

    • @learnthesky
      @learnthesky  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you for sharing! I can't wait to make it down to the southern hemisphere to observe how the constellations look compared to what I see in the northern hemisphere.

    • @DonRamon_SeuMadruga_52231
      @DonRamon_SeuMadruga_52231 Před 2 lety

      @@learnthesky I understand you because the opposite happens to me, I've never been anywhere in northern hemisphere, and I can see only half of Cassiopeia, Draco, Cepheus and Camelopardalis. Never saw Ursa Minor and Polaris rotating around the N pole and only recently I finally saw Dubhe scratching the N horizon and the whole Big Dipper from here.
      And be prepared, if you plan to stargaze the surroundings of the S pole you'll have a hard time to recognize some things, besides Centaurus, Crux, Carina and the two Magellanic Clouds this part of the sky is devoid of everything bright hahahah

    @knowledge-jm5dn Před 2 lety +2

    Was it true this constellation was in the east skies as the sun rises, as the sun literally rose through it November 27th? Also Omicron is a star in this constellation too right?

    • @learnthesky
      @learnthesky  Před 2 lety +8

      No. This is not true. The sun does not pass through Corona Borealis, so it is not a zodiacal constellation. But yes, there is a star in this constellation that is dubbed Omicron Coronae Borealis. But keep in mind that virtually every constellation has an omicron star in it. This star naming system is called the Bayer Designation system, and it orders the stars in a given constellation from the brightest on down with a Greek letter. This system was created hundreds of years ago. And this is not the only way astronomers name stars. There are many star naming systems that have been created over the centuries.
      I hope you don't mind the long answer. It is exactly for reasons like this that I started this channel. Scientific misconceptions are rampant in our society. My aim is the teach through the scientific lens of astronomy.

    There is supposed to be a binary star system next to the Corona. B about to Nova some day soon.

  • @tomkrzyt

    10:00 As I can see the variable R Coronae Borealis is in a maximum brightness. 🙂

    Is it visible in September in the Northern hemisphere!? I just heard one of its stars is going to Nova explode???

    Can you do a Star constellation called Lupus? Please?

  • @ganpatdhanawade1179

    By the way from India.
    Can we see stars at 5:00/4:00 am, before sunrise.
    Because I want see Jupiter and Saturn, Summer sky.
    Please tell me

    • @learnthesky
      @learnthesky  Před 3 lety

      Yes, you can see stars that early if it is dark enough.

  • @therealjaydengamer4900

    It’s so beautiful! Who’s crown is it though?

    Omnicron corona borealis is a star in this constellation.

    • @learnthesky
      @learnthesky  Před 2 lety

      Yes, this is true. It is very faint, and right at the naked eye limit with a magnitude of 5.53. Dark skies with no light pollution are needed to see it.

  • @MarriedToAsmo
    @MarriedToAsmo Před 3 lety +1

    Corona borealis and corona australis

  • @zanpsimer7685
    @zanpsimer7685 Před 3 měsíci

    Showing a massive explosion covering half the sky is so misleading. Arc to Arcturus from Ursa Major meaning follow the handle of the Big Dipper to find Arcturus. You will see another bright star appear here for about a week between now and October. That’s it. So keep looking up.

      Because I made this video in April 2021 when the Omicron variant wasn’t a thing.
