LUPUS

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 up and to the left. 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. See central Lupus.
