There is so much to look for in the dazzling night sky<\/a> that it can sometimes be hard to tell what you’re seeing.<\/p>\n

If you are trying to spot a certain constellation, such as Capricornus, which is thought to represent a sea goat, you may need a little help from tools and maps to find your way.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Capricornus constellation is a dim one that can be a little difficult to find, so you will probably want to use binoculars or a telescope to help you see it more clearly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

HOW TO TAKE GREAT PHOTOS OF THE NIGHT SKY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The constellation looks a bit like a squished triangle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although there are different stories behind the origins of the constellation, what you see is really up to your own interpretation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you want to spot the sea goat constellation,<\/a> here are key tips that will help you, plus, more information about the constellation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Capricornus is Latin for “horned goat,” and the folklore behind the constellation is an intriguing story.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The folklore says that sea nymphs and goddesses all got together, including the god Pan. Then, a monster called a Typhoon came along, prompting all the gods to change themselves into animals as a disguise and to make their escape.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pan followed suit and jumped into a river before his full transformation into a goat was complete.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This left him with the upper half of a goat, and a lower half of a fish.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The terms are interchangable, but typically Capricorn is used when talking about the zodiac sign,<\/a> while Capricornus is used when discussing the actual constellation.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Capricornus constellation is visible from April to December. The best time for viewing is around 9:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

Even though it can be seen during those months, the best time for spotting the constellation is around September and October.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first step to spotting Capricornus is understanding what you’re aiming to see.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As noted, the constellation looks like a squished triangular figure. There are brighter stars that make up the triangle shape that are the easiest to spot.<\/p>\n

The brightest feature of the constellation is Algiedi, which is actually a pair of stars, Alpha 1 and Alpha 2, which are over 100 light years away. You should be able to spot this star without any additional tools.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then there’s Dabih, another star pair, and below that you’ll find Rho, Pi and Omicron.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The constellation is generally very dim, so you’ll probably want to grab some optical tools in order to see it more clearly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another tip is to locate Sagittarius first, since that is typically an easier constellation to see and positioned close by.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
