What time would the constellation carina be visible in johnstown?
In the USA alone, we see cities, towns, or villages of Johnstown in Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, and Colorado.
As it turns out, we don't have to concern ourselves with the problem of which one the question is referring to, as
the answer is the same for any of them.
The brightest star in the constellation Carina is Canopus ... second brightest star in the night sky, after Sirius,
and often used as a reference target for automated spacecraft navigation. Canopus is just about the
northernmost extent of the constellation Carina ... the rest of the constellation is south of Canopus.
The celestial declination of Canopus is -52.7 degrees. What that means is that if you're north of latitude
37-18N, then Canopus ... and the rest of Carina ... is never above your horizon.
That latitude is roughly the line across San Jose CA, Durango CO, Coffeeville KS, Springfield MO,
Paducah KY, and Roanoke VA. ON this line, Canopus just touches the horizon. North of the line, it's
never visible.
So, none of Carina is ever visible from any of the Johnstowns that we were able to find in the US. Sorry.
Which constellation has the star arcturis?
The star Arcturus is part of the constellation Boötes. It is the brightest star in this constellation and the fourth-brightest star in the night sky. Boötes is known for its kite-shaped pattern of stars that represents a herdsman or a plowman.
How does earth revolution affect the viewing of constellation?
As earth orbits the sun, different constellations come into view while others disappear. Circumpolar constellations are visible all year long, other constellations are not.
How far away is the big dipper from earth?
Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern,
but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the
same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no
such thing as a constellation's distance from us.
How did astronomers discover that the star Sirius was moving away from earth?
They craped in the toilet and Looked up in the sky and said sh!t Sirius is moving away from earth.
Difference between an Omega Constellation and an Omega Constellation Double Eagle?
From the pictures they look differ in Bracelet and Case design. Double Eagle has a more elegant bracelet and I guess is newer.
Constellation 09 series is pretty much look alike older double eagle (model # 1511.30) with 35mm Case Diameter while the newer Double Eagles (like 1513.51) have 38mm case diameters.
Constellation 95 Case = 33.5 and 35.5
Constellation 09 Case = 35mm (model # 123.10.35.60.01.001)
Constellation Double Eagle 1513 = 38 mm
Constellation Double Eagle 1511 = 35 mm
If a star in a constellation explodes what will happen to the constellation?
Depending on which constellation, somewhere between then next 20 and 2000 years people will see that star explode; the constellation will appear different for a year or five, and then disappear, leaving a whole in it.
What is the best time of year to view Capricorns?

When will the first coded radio message sent from earth in 1974 to constellation Hercules arrive?

Northerly, until it is overhead.
Where would we find the oldest known drawings of constellations?
Lascaux, France, 17,000 years ago Frank Edge's discovery began as a moment of pattern recognition, and it would take an astronomer's familiarity with the constellations to see it. Edge was just gazing at photos of the famed cave paintings at Lascaux, France, when he quickly identified the Pleiades in a series of six dots over the shoulder of the most prominent bull. He kept looking at the six figures, four of them bulls, that make up the Hall of Bulls mural. The more he looked, the more representations of stars he began to see in the outline of those figures. Now that he's sorted it all out, he can tell you that what he saw were new constellations, arbitrary groupings of stars, that are bigger than those we know today. The body of that dominant bull incorporates the constellation Taurus, of which the Pleiades is a part. In the next bull, he found Orion and Gemini, and in the next Leo, with portions of Virgo. In the next figure, a horse's head is the feet of Virgo, and at the far end of the mural, a curious unicorn is made up of Scorpius, Sagitarrius and Libra. All the dots are in the right place, with appropriate shapes says Edge. With the Pleiades, we have it easy, with dots matching dots. All the rest are what you get when you connect dots into pictures. It was time to turn to the computer for verification. Using Sky Globe, Edge went backwards in time to the date archeologists assign the cave paintings, based on cave floor pollen samples. And there the computer-generated pictures of the positions of the stars showed those very same constellations, all neatly lined up on the horizon on the summer solstice of 15,000 B.C., 17,000 years ago. He had confirmed the painting's date.
Which constellation is represented as a harp-like instrument played by Orpheus?

Blue I think... the hotter and bigger they are they will generally become blue or purple. When it gets old though and basically self destructs it can be red.

Because opposition is when The Sun, the Earth and the planet are in a line. The planet appears opposite the Sun in the sky and the distance between Earth and planet is at a minimum.
What is bigger R136a1or VY Canis Majoris?
As far as mass goes, R136a1 beats out VY Canis Majoris by 253 solar masses (265 solar masses for R136a1 vs Canis Majoris' 30). However, VY Canis Majoris beats out R136a1 in radius by about 1,385 solar radii (Canis Majoris is 1,420 solar radii vs R136a1's ~35).
It half of the celestial sphere, which is an imaginary sphere with the Earth at the centre, on which all objects in the sky can have their positions described by a type of latitude (declination) and a type of longitude (right-ascension). Declination goes from -90 degrees (south) to +90 degrees (north), while right ascension goes from 0 to 24 hours. They are called geocentric coordinates, and although we know the Earth is not at the centre of anything, they are useful in describing where to look for a star or to point a telescope.
How do you think Sagittarius and Perseus arms got their names?
Those constellations mark the areas of the sky where you have to look in order
to see those regions of the Milky way. Of course, you can see the constellations
with your own eyes, but it takes a serious telescope to make out the spiral arms
of our galaxy.
Where is the Sirius constellation?
Sirius is NOT a constellation - it's a star, the brightest star in our night sky. It's in the constellation, Canis Major the Great Dog - just left of Orion.
