Aries, the Ram, the flat triangle just right of center, is seen rising.
From left to right, the stars are Hamal (Alpha, at center), Sheratan (Beta),
and Mesarthin (Gamma). The third brightest star, Flamsteed 41, is far
to the left. It was once part of the now-defunct modern
constellation Musca Borealis, the Northern Fly. Delta Ari is the lower of
the two bright stars a lower left, Epsilon the upper. Lambda is the brightest of
the trio just up and to the right of Hamal.
