Let's take a cosmic journey out to the stars. Often referred to as the dog star. The star Sirius is the brightest in the night sky. This occurs because of its intrinsic luminosity but also from its relative near proximity to Earth. The Sirius system is only 8.6 light years away. Sirius A is the larger of the two in this binary star system. Sirius B is a white dwarf star much smaller than A but actually used to be much larger when it was a red giant. Arturus is found in the constellation Boaties. To find it, follow the arc of the Big Dipper's handle as shown here. Its constellation forms what looks like the shape of a kite and represents a herdsman. As a red giant, Arturus is the third brightest star at about 37 light years away. The globular cluster M3 is composed of half a million stars and only 10 degrees to the northwest of our tourist in our sky. Electra is a blue white giant star, one of the nine brightest stars in the Pleiades star cluster found in the tourist constellation. At a distance of about 370 light years from the sun, Electra is one of the four Pleiades stars that are classified as a giant. The constellation Scorpius is composed of many bright stars including Antares, Sargos, and Leswett. With its position in the Milky Way, Scorpius contains many deep sky objects such as Messier VI, the Butterfly cluster, and Messier VII, the Tollamy cluster. The brightest star in the constellation Draco is Eltonon, also known as Gamma Draconis. One of the deep sky objects in Draco is the Catmine Nebula. With the several faint galaxies in Draco, the Draco dwarf galaxy is one of the least luminous galaxies. Copella, which means the little female goat, is the brightest star in constellation Arigah. O'Brien, also called the Hunter, is a constellation famous for the group of stars that form O'Brien's belt. Also part of O'Brien is Rigel, a B-type blue super giant, and the six brightest star in the night sky. In 2002, a distant red variable star called Monasterodis flared up to become 600,000 times brighter than the sun. It may be one of the most gigantic stars. The Hubble Space Telescope has continued to capture its light echo off the gaseous cloud surrounding it. Stars are born in massive cauldrons of gas and dust. What will our most advanced telescopes discover next?
