TRACE HERE DON’T GET STAR FOMO - AS SUMMER# WINDS DOWN, A LONE STAR RISES IN THE SOUTH TO ANNOUNCE THE CHANGING OF THE SEASON - SOMETIMES# CALLED THE LONELIEST STAR - IT’S FOMALHAUT.

TO SEE IT LOOK SOUTH AROUND ONE AM.

IT’S NOT THAT, THAT’S SATURN.# IT’S NOT THIS OVER HERE, THAT’S ALTAIR IN AQUILA.# IT’S DOWN HERE, ALL ALONE.

FOMALHAUT IS PART OF A SMALL FAINT# CONSTELLATION CALLED PISCIS AUSTRINUS, THE SOUTHERN FISH; IT MARKS THE FISH'S MOUTH.

IF IT’S DARK ENOUGH, LOOK FOR THE FAINT ZIGZAG# OF STARS FROM AQUARIUS THE WATER BEARER - THE ANCIENTS SAW AQUARIUS POUR HIS WATER URN# RIGHT INTO THE SOUTHERN FISH'S MOUTH.

NOW, FOMALHAUT IS LONELY BUT NOT ALONE - IT# HAS A HUGE BELT OF MATTER SURROUNDING IT, WITH A SHARP INNER EDGE!

ASTRONOMERS THOUGHT# THERE MIGHT BE A PLANET THERE, AND EVEN NAMED THE UNSEEN PLANET DAGON HALF-MAN HALF-FISH.# TURNS OUT IT WAS A DUST CLOUD FROM A COLLISION.

WE’LL DEFINITELY HAVE TO KEEP LOOKIN’ UP!
