Betelgeuse (not to be confused with Beetle Juice)
BETELGEUSE
|
**NOTE**
Betelgeuse is a star that is found in the night sky. Beetlejuice is played by star Michael Keaton. About the star (in the night sky): "Betelgeuse is generally the ninth-brightest star in the night sky and second-brightest in the constellation of Orion (after Rigel). Due to its distinctive orange-red color, Betelgeuse is easy to spot with the naked eye in the night sky. It is one of three stars that make up the Winter Triangle asterism, and it marks the center of the Winter Hexagon. At the beginning of January of each year, it can be seen rising in the east just after sunset. Between mid-September to mid-March (best in mid-December), it is visible to virtually every inhabited region of the globe, except in Antarctica at latitudes south of 82°. In May (moderate northern latitudes) or June (southern latitudes), the red supergiant can be seen briefly on the western horizon after sunset, reappearing again a few months later on the eastern horizon before sunrise." - Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betelgeuse |

Polaris (North Star)
Polaris (the North Star) found in the "Little Dipper" constellation
|
About Polaris: "Polaris is located in the constellation of Ursa Minor, the Little Bear. It sometimes also goes by the name "Stella Polaris." The seven stars from which we derive a bear are also known as the Little Dipper. Polaris, the North Star, lies at the end of the handle of the Little Dipper, whose stars are rather faint.

Its four faintest stars can be blotted out with very little moonlight or street lighting. " - Source: https://www.space.com/15567-north-star-polaris.html |

Sirius (The Dog Star)
Sirius (The Dog Star) found in the "Canis Major" constellation
|
About Sirius: "The brightest star visible from any part of Earth is Sirius in the constellation Canis Major the Greater Dog. Sirius is sometimes called the Dog Star. Most people in the Northern Hemisphere notice Sirius in the southeast – south – or southwest on evenings from winter to mid-spring. February evenings are a grand time to see it. It’s also fun to spot Sirius as it ascends in the east before dawn on late summer mornings.
Sirius is well known as the Dog Star, because it’s the chief star in the constellation Canis Major, the Big Dog. Have you ever heard anyone speak of the dog days of summer? Sirius is behind the sun as seen from Earth in Northern Hemisphere summer. In late summer, it appears in the east before sunrise – near the sun in our sky. The early stargazers might have imagined the double-whammy of Sirius and the sun caused the hot weather, or dog days." - Source: https://earthsky.org/brightest-stars/sirius-the-brightest-star |
