165438+1what is the constellation on October 9th?

But Scorpio Scorpio is the most prominent constellation in the zodiac. Located between Libra and Sagittarius.

Scorpio symbol:? Center position: right ascension 16: 40, declination -36 degrees. Summer appears in the southern sky, and the scorpion's tail points to the southeast, between the snake head, Sagittarius and Libra. Alpha star (Antares) is a red star with a magnitude of 1. The open clusters M6 and M7 are visible to the naked eye, and 22 stars in the constellation are brighter than 4 stars.

At eight or nine o'clock in the summer evening, there is a bright star in the south, which is not very high from the horizon. It is Scorpio Alpha (Antares).

Scorpio is the most conspicuous constellation in summer. There are 6 bright stars with apparent magnitude higher than 2.4, second only to Orion's 7, and tied for second place with Centauri and Ursa Major. Scorpio is big and bright, with many stars, which can be said to be the representative of the summer night constellation. In addition, it is also a zodiac, so it is particularly eye-catching. However, Scorpio only occupies a short range of 7 on the ecliptic, which is the shortest ecliptic among the twelve constellations.

Scorpio is immersed in the vast galaxy from alpha star to long scorpion tail. Alpha is located in the scorpion's chest, so the west calls it "the heart of Scorpio". Interestingly, in ancient China, the alpha star of Scorpio was placed in the center of 28 nights, which was called "Antares". Astronomers from the East and the West happen to coincide here.
