Canis Major won’t be in the early evening sky for a month or two,
but here’s a chance to brush up on connecting the dots.

I am including 2 renderings of Canis Major here…
Pick one and see if you can do better than a 5 stick figure in my star atlas.

Canis Major to Magnitude 6.0, designed for printing, then drawing the lines to make it look like something.

This one has a few less stars. I still see a poodle when i look at it.Best to right click, save the image, then print it.
