Leo and the Sickle



Leo is the constellation which is recognizable by its "backward question mark," the Sickle. (I apologize I accidentally labeled the lion's tail as the Sickle in my drawing). The brightest star in the constellation is Regulus, who, on this night was situated 235° west with a 50° altitude.

As mentioned in my previous observation, I had looked at Leo once before, not looking for it specifically, but was happy that I was able to recognize it. That night, along with this, will be the memories I keep of my first experiences with the constellation of Leo the Lion, which truly is spectacular.
