APOD 2.6


I am so glad to have stumbled upon this APOD. With the changing of seasons, summer to fall to winter, Alex and I observed with remorse as the Summer Triangle rose lower and lower in the sky. The Summer Triangle was the basis for everything. It was the compass to my rose and now I look at the night sky with confusion. "Oh, there's Orion." That's it. That's all I got. But wait! All hope is not lost! The Winter Hexagon exists. I once again have some sort of direction in my life. The six stars of the Winter Hexagon are Aldebaran, Capella, Castor Pollux, Procyon, Sirius, and Rigel. Armed with this knowledge I will be much more prepared to take on the Winter Sky!
