Lupus, the Wolf, loops around the picture to the southwest of
Scorpius. Kakkab (Alpha Lupi) is the brightest
of the stars near the lower right corner (and within the horizon clouds).
Beta Lupi is the lower of the two stars up and to the left
(the upper is Kappa Centauri). Delta Lup lies at the center, while Gamma is to the
left of Delta and GG the first star down and to the right of Delta. The brightest star near the upper left
corner is Rho Scorpii (which lies south of Scorpius's three-star head).
Chi Lupi is at the top of the loop down and slightly to the right of
Rho Sco. Norma is at the lower left corner, while
Centaurus sprawls to the right. Zeta Lupi lies at
bottom center with Kappa just above it. The stars of southern Libra
are at the top. Tau Lib is the lower of the trio just left of the top center edge.
