Today 11/02/2021 at 23:00 the constellation Canis Minor appears in front of my telescope, it is a very small conjugation of stars, it is not easy to see when the sky presents a moderate light pollution, but I still managed to register it. The common name that is given to this constellation is the "little dog" despite not being recorded in the book of Ptolemy, the constellation of Canis Minor is part of the group of modern 88! come in my post to discover everything about her!๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿช

Hoy 02/11/2021 a las 23:00 aparece frente de mi telescopio la constelacion Canis Minor, es una conjugacion de estrellas muy pequeรฑa, no es facil de ver cuando el cielo presenta una moderada contaminacion luminica, pero aun logre registrarla. El nombre comun que se le da a esta constelacion es el "perro pequeรฑo" apesar de no ser registrada entre el libro de Ptolomeo, la constelacion de Canis Minor forma parte al grupo de las 88 modernas! ven en mi post a descubrir todo sobre ella!๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿ”ญ

When I went to consult my digital bibliographic reference I was able to discover this beautiful and small constellation that bears the name "Little Dog" and that is why it is called "Canis Minor" although the Starry Night Celestron program tells us that the publication of Ptolemy and the pointed in the astral plane, so it can also be classified as a primitive constellation! Recognizing the Canis Minor is very easy because they are two bright stars that meet with a straight line!๐Ÿง ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ
Cuando fui a consultar mi referencia bibliografica digital pude descubrir esta hermosa y pequeรฑa constelacion que lleva como nombre el "Perro Pequeรฑo" y por eso se le denomina "Canis Minor" aunque el programa de Starry Night Celestron nos expresa que la publicacion de Ptolomeo ya la seรฑalaba en el plano astral, por lo que tambien puede ser catalogada como una constelacion primivita! reconocer la Canis Minor es muy facil porque son dos estrellas brillantes que se unen con una linea recta!๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคฉ

Well, to get Can Minor in the sky, we must first locate ourselves in the SOUTH, at about 10 degrees N, the constellation of the "little dog" is small compared to other modern constellations, but in it its brightest star stands out, which was baptized as "Procyon" has a magnitude of 0.5, the constellation is located about 11.4 million light years from our solar system, classified as a Binary system, that is, composed of two stars, one of them white-yellow that has a brightness x7 times more than our sun!๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ
Bien para conseguir Can Menor en el cielo primero debemos ubicarnos en el SUR, a unos 10grados N, la constelacion del "perro pequeรฑo" es pequeรฑa si se compara con otras constelaciones modernas, pero en ella se destaca su estrella mas brillante que fue bautizada como "Procyon" tiene una magnitud de 0,5 la constelacion se ubica a unos 11.4 millones aรฑos luz de nuestro sistema solar, clasificada como sistema Binario, osea compuesta por dos estrellas, una de ellas blanco-amarillo que tiene un brillo x7 veces mas que nuestro sol!๐Ÿช๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿคฏ

Well our brightest star in Canis Minor is: alpha Procyon or Pro-Cion, it has an astronomical scale measured in magnitude of 0.5, it is very bright and yellowish, it is located about 11 million light years, it has an orbital period of 40 years, then we have our second main star, Beta: o Gomeisa: it has a magnitude much higher than 2.90 if we compare it with the alpha, it is not very bright and seeing it in the sky is difficult, we must have a little experience! Incredibly it is 170 million light years from our solar system, compared to our sun it is +170 times brighter!๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ
Bien nuestra estrella mas brillante en Canis Minor es: alfa Procyon o Pro-Cion, tiene una escala astronomica medida en magnitud de 0,5 es muy brillante y de coloracion amarillenta, esta ubicada a unos 11millones de aรฑos luz, presenta un periodo orbital de 40aรฑos, luego tenemos nuestra segunda estrella principal la Beta: o Gomeisa: tiene una magnitud muy superior de 2,90 si la comparamos con la alfa no es muy brillante y verla en el cielo es dificil debemos tener un poco de experiencia! increiblemente esta a 170millones de aรฑos luz de nuestro sistema solar, si se compara con nuestro sol es +170 veces mas brillante!๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ•ต๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ”ญ

Here we can clearly see the two brightest stars of our "Canis Minor" the largest and brightest is the alpha star, then the smallest is the beta "Gomeisa", obviously depending on where we are we can see the constellation in different ways, if you are In the south you may see the constellation in an inclined or horizontal way, the stars are not always seen from the same position because we remember that the earth is rotating, this constellation is very good to be seen in winter!๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿช
Aqui podemos ver claramente las dos estrellas mas brillante de nuestro "Canis Minor" la mas grande y brillante es la estrella alfa, luego la mas pequeรฑa es la beta "Gomeisa", obviamente dependiendo donde estemos podremos ver la constelacion de diferentes formas, si estas en la zona sur puede que veas la constelacion de forma inclinada o horizontal, no siempre las estrellas son vista de la misma posicion porque recordemos que la tierra va rotando, esta constelacion es muy buena ser vista en invierno!๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿซ๐Ÿง

Well actually its name tells us many things, being a small dog it symbolized a "hunting dog" that followed Orion when he made his great adventures! Although in the sky there is not only a hunting dog, there is a constellation called "Canis Major" the latter stands out because it has the brightest star in the sky! It was baptized as "Sirius", since the ancient Egyptians the observation of Canis was already described since it was represented with the floods of the imposing river Nile!๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐Ÿช๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง 
Bueno en realidad su nombre nos dice muchas cosas, al ser un perro pequeรฑo simbolizaba un "perro cazador" que iba siguiendo a Orion cuando realizaba sus grandes aventuras! aunque en el cielo no solo existe un perro cazador, hay una constelacion llamada "Canis Major" esta ultima destaca porque tiene la estrella mas brillante del cielo! fue bautizada como "Sirius", desde los antiguos egipcios ya se describia la observacion de Canis ya que era representada con las inundaciones del imponente rio Nilo!๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Well to locate the constellation of Canis Minor I used my real time Skymaps application, since the sky was very polluted and it was very difficult for me to get it with the naked eye! but after locating it, I managed to take very close photos of what its two stars look like and I also managed to point them with a long-range laser so we don't confuse it!๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿช๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿง 
Bien para ubicar la constelacion de Canis Minor utilice mi aplicacion de tiempo real Skymaps, ya que el cielo estaba muy contaminado y me dificultaba mucho conseguirla a ojo desnudo! pero luego de ubicarla logre realizar unas fotos muy proximas de como lucen sus dos estrellas y tambien logre apuntarlas con un laser de largo alcance asi no la confundimos!๐Ÿ˜จ๐Ÿ˜จ

Although I do not have a powerful telescope I can show you here in this photo the real coloration of the star, as the reference says "a white-yellow coloration" it is very interesting to see it closely to observe its details!๐Ÿ˜—๐Ÿ˜—
Apesar que no dispongo de un telescopio potente puedo mostrarte aqui en esta foto la coloracion real de la estrella, como lo dice la referencia "una coloracion blanco-amarilla" es muy interesante verla de muy cerca para observar sus detalles!๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜จ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Due to its small size compared to alpha and its higher magnitude I managed to take a good photo showing the characteristics of the beta star of the constellation! it has a magnitude of "2.89" and is bluish-white in color. It has a temperature of "11,500K" this is 250+ than our sun!๐Ÿ”ญ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ˜
Debido a su pequeรฑo tamaรฑo en comparacion con alfa y su magnitud superior logre tomar una buena foto mostrando las caracteristicas de la estrella beta de la constelacion! tiene una magnitud de "2,89" es de color blanco-azulado.

If we want to see Minor Canis I give you good news we can see it from anywhere on our planet being the best time in winter, if we want some coordinates: +0 to + 13 degrees! If it is difficult to get it then we can use Geminis as a reference and go down a bit towards the south! Thanks for reading my post I appreciate your opinions, if you have something to contribute, feel free to comment!๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ‘จ
Si queremos ver Minor Canis te doy una buena noticia podemos verla desde cualquier parte de nuestro planeta siendo mejor epoca en invierno, si deseamos unas coordenadas: +0 a +13grados! si es dificil conseguirla entonces podemos usar a geminis como referencia y bajar un poco hacia el sur! gracias por leer mi post agradezco tu opiniones, si tienes algo para aportar sientete a voluntad de comentar!๐Ÿช๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ”ญ๐ŸŒŒ
