The Hunter and His Dogs - Constellations

In this episode we listen to Dr Sandra Voss, the Science Director at The Observatory Science Centre, speak about the constellations Orion and his hunting dogs Canis Major and Canis Minor. The Orion constellation is extremely recognisable throughout the winter months in the Northern hemisphere. Whilst Orion is not a circumpolar constellation, Orion is worthy of taking time to view on a clear night as it shows a fine example of stellar creation within his mythical belt.
