This year, 2013, is not optimal for watching the Orionid meteor shower because a bright waning gibbous moon will be in the sky during the peak hours between midnight and dawn. Some who witnessed the 1966 Leonid meteor storm said they felt as if they needed to grip the ground, so strong was the impression of Earth plowing along through space, fording the meteoroid stream

The most famous are probably the PLEIADES (M45) (see below and SEDS Pleiades or Steven Gibson's Pleiades ) and HYADES (see SEDS Hyades) which are both OPEN STAR CLUSTERS in Taurus.

Atlas was one of the Titans, and after warring against the Olympians, he was sentenced to hold up the heavens on his shoulders (before this, the Sky and the Earth, parents of the Titans, were free to lie together in a lingering embrace, so Atlas is basically being used as a birth control device for deities). Kio Kio (KEE-oh) is the ancient Chinese name for Spica, the common name for Alpha Virginis, a blue giant binary star and the brightest in the constellation Virgo

The seven stars of the Big Dipper have inspired many stories, perhaps because they are bright and located so near the north celestial pole, around which the stars rotate during the course of the night. For example, the star name Fomalhaut (in the constellation of Pisces) comes from the Arabic for "mouth of the southern fish," which is how Ptolemy described it in the Almagest

Durer drew him facing the Bull (Taurus), whose attack he is warding off; but the Leyden Manuscript has a lightly clad youth with a short, curved staff in the right hand, and the Hare (Lepus) in the background. Thompson sees in this alternate rising and setting of these two sky figures an astronomic explanation of the symbolism in classic ornithology of the mutual pursuit and flight of Haliaetos and Keiris, the Sea Eagle and Kingfisher, compared in the poem Ciris to these opposed constellations

True scientific astronomy has its roots in the attempts of ancient astrologers to predict future occurrences of, for instance, imperial Jupiter and the blood-red planet Mars meeting within the charging bull of Taurus -- a potentially powerful omen for those who believed the planets represented the gods themselves. It was reasoned that these zodiacal constellations must be special to make up this path, and the relative positions of the "wandering stars" within them bore great importance

Over the past century, it has been the subject of a barrage of scientific investigation.

The story starts with the pre-Islamic Arabic astronomers, who called the star yad al-jawz', "hand of the jawz'." The jawz' was their name for the constellation Gemini. Some centuries later, when scribes writing in Medieval Latin tried to render the word, they misread the y as a b (the two corresponding Arabic letters are very similar when used as the first letter in a word), leading to the Medieval Latin form Bedalgeuze

According to Greek mythology, Orion was in love with Merope, one of the Seven Sisters who form the Pleiades, but Merope would have nothing to do with him. From the northern hemisphere, the three bright stars (Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka) in a straight line that form Orion's Belt are easily visible on the southern horizon in winter evenings

"Such a major single feature is distinctly different from scattered smaller regions of activity typically found on the Sun although the strong ultraviolet flux enhancement is characteristic of stellar magnetic activity. Because Betelgeuse is a variable star whose brightness ranges between 0.2 and 1.2, there are periods when it will surpass Procyon to become the seventh brightest star

In the sci-fi comedy entitled 'Men In Black', the last words declared by a dying alien disguised as a human were 'To prevent war, the Galaxy is on Orion's belt.' However, the galaxy is located on the collar of a cat whose name is 'Orion'. Similar to Betelgeuse, Rigel is fusing heavy elements in its core and will pass its supergiant stage soon (on an astronomical timescale), either collapsing in the case of a supernova or shedding its outer layers and turning into a white dwarf
