Modern Night Sky Constellation - Canis Minor
Simple, modern depiction of a celestial constellation. Canis Minor is a small constellation, visible just to the north of the celestial equator in the months around January. It contains only one prominent object: the eighth brightest star in the whole sky, Procyon. The Greek name of the star Procyon means before the dog, and is derived from the fact that it rises earlier than the other dog, Canis Major. This constellation is among those listed by Ptolemy in the second century, and is almost certainly Babylonian in origin
