Star chart showing the Summer Triangle with 3 labeled stars.
The #SummerTriangle - a splendid trio of stars in the Northern Hemisphere’s summer sky - is still visible as the weeks of autumn slide by. Find out how to see it at: buff.ly/JABwn6b
Summer Triangle outlined with its apex stars labeled and 3 small constellations near it: Delphinus, Sagitta and Vulpecula.
Have you ever seen the constellation #Sagitta? It has been around since the 2nd century! It contains dim stars and is the 3rd smallest of the 88 #constellations. But its position inside the pointy end of the #SummerTriangle makes it easy to find. Would you give a try? 🌌🔭

"The nights surrounding Aug. 29 are a great time to spot the stars of the famous 'Summer Triangle', bisected by the glowing band of the Milky Way, with an early-setting crescent moon providing a perfect setting for the stellar hunt."

Look up to see #Aquila the Eagle soaring along the #MilkyWay! 🦅🌌🔭
Aquila the Eagle is home to the bright star #Altair, which forms 1 corner of the #SummerTriangle. You can see this constellation at its best on northern late summer or early fall evenings:

Star chart showing a purple triangle with 3 stars, including Altair and its constellation Aquila.
Look up to see #Altair! Altair is the brightest #star in the constellation Aquila. It's mostly known for being one of the 3 #SummerTriangle stars. It shines at magnitude +0.76 and is only 16.8 light-years from Earth. Plus, it's an unusual variable and it spins fast! 🌟🌌🔭

"Each of the Summer Triangle's stars — Vega, Deneb and Altair — belong to a different constellation in the sky and will be among the first lights to appear as the glow of the setting sun gives way to darkness in the coming months."

Large, magenta triangle in the sky with a labeled star at each corner.
Watch for the famous #SummerTriangle, now ascending in the eastern sky on these late June and July evenings. The Summer Triangle isn’t a constellation. It’s an #asterism, or noticeable pattern of stars. It consists of 3 bright stars: Deneb, Vega and Altair. 🌌🔭

A breathtaking night sky image showcasing the Summer Triangle asterism (Vega, Deneb, and Altair) above a stunning 500-year-old cherry tree in full bloom in Gunma, Japan. The triangle of stars contrasts beautifully with the triangular shape of the ancient tree, creating a captivating scene of celestial and earthly beauty. The image was captured last month.

A breathtaking mosaic of the Cygnus constellation in the Milky Way galaxy, showcasing the North America Nebula (NGC 7000), the Pelican Nebula (IC 5070), the Northern Coal Sack Nebula, and the bright star Deneb. This image, created from 400 hours of exposure over a decade, reveals intricate details of interstellar dust and gas clouds, spanning 28x18 degrees. Deneb, a prominent star also part of the Summer Triangle and Northern Cross asterisms, is visible in the left of the image.

A stunning night sky image over Victoria, British Columbia, showcasing the Summer Triangle asterism with Vega as its brightest star. Comet Hale-Bopp is also visible, adding to the celestial spectacle. The image highlights Vega's significance as a former North Star and its potential for harboring life-bearing planets.

An #Asterism is a recognizable pattern of stars in the night sky, distinct from official constellations.
It can be part of a constellation, like the #BigDipper within Ursa Major, or span across multiple constellations, such as the #SummerTriangle.

月齢8.73 九日月 輝面比 57.80% 月の出 13:30 月の入 23:06 この月はすでに上弦(03:55)を迎えて昇ってきました。 間もなく建物に隠れて見えなくなります。 久し振りの再会を楽しみました😊
白鳥は翼を広げてまるで銀河を降りてくるように見えました。 はくちょう座のデネブ、こと座のベガ、わし座のアルタイル。明るく見える３つの星を結ぶと大きな三角(夏の大三角)になります。秋風に吹かれてあの夏を思い出しながら私も銀河の中にいるのです。
土星の上にペガサス座が！！ 秋の四辺形、ペガサスの四辺形が見えました。 以前、観望会で教えていただいたことがありましたが、自ら確認できたのは初めてです。
東の低空(写真右下)の木星をはじめ、おうし座のアルデバラン、プレアデス星団が見えました。ぎょしゃ座、ペルセウス座、カシオペア座も。 いつもになく北東の空は賑やかでした。 思わず時の経つのも忘れ見入ってました。
久し振りの再会です。
半分になった月が沈んでいき、
空は賑やかに✩.*˚

How many constellations can you make out?
Last night, I saw a satellite glide across the #SummerTriangle. For decades, that patch of sky has brought me real calm. I always liked satellites. Humanity and space, together at last! Then, another... and another. The app said they're all #Starlink. Come on, folks. Enough.
At mid-northern latitudes, only 3 bright stars cross near the very top of the dome. Tonight! #LookUp way into neck-ache territory and spot ol' #Vega, kingpin of the #SummerTriangle, then see if you can find Altair and Deneb, too.
(Arcturus and Capella are the other top-domers
This weekend! #LookUp find the #SummerTriangle in the northeast sky! Here's a photo I took of it near my house last night. As the summer goes on, let's watch as it climbs higher into the night. Believe it or not, these stars will be with us all the way out to January! #space
Three of the brightest things you'll see in the sky these nights are the stars of the #SummerTriangle. That's Vega (in Lyra, the harp), way high up near the top of the dome, Altair (Aquila the eagle) and Deneb (in Cygnus the swan). #space #lookUp
I'm staring up at the gap between Vega and Deneb, the guts of the #SummerTriangle, and sipping a beer. It's chilly tonight. As two satellites glide by, I wonder if anyone out there is looking back and wondering why Earth's brightness keeps changing. So, I raise my glass.
