There is a new 7th magnitude #nova located very conveniently in the constellation #Sagitta, right next to its 3.8 mag. star Delta a.k.a. #Zuoqi: http://www.cbat.eps.harvard.edu/iau/cbet/005700/CBET005729.txt = detailled report, https://apps.aavso.org/webobs/results/?star=000-BQQ-565&num_results=100 = current observations, https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10244480237489245 = a picture.

What would I do with the #Sagitta brand??

I want the Sagittarium (name stolen from Jordan) -- an axe-throwing bar with archery 🏹 instead of axes 🪓 bc frankly axes seem too dangerous for drunk folk...

while we're talking about #creatures & our most recent episode -- this is the jaw of a predatory marine worm aka arrow worm (genus #sagitta)

Most are 2 to 120 mm, but when you ZOOM in like this... it's def 🙀

Me: The #Disney Hercules is one of my top 3 animated disney movies & the animated tv show is a real vibe

also me, esp. in any episode where #Hercules weasels his way in: AND A BIG 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕to Hercules!!!!!

my feelings about Hercules are clearly v. nuanced.

To get more of the latter takes, check out our last #podcast on the #mythology of the #constellation #Sagitta here: https://starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/e/sagitta-myths-and-retconstellations/

My ret-constellation for the #constellation #sagitta was to align it with a modern archer (rather than random assorted Hercules stories or an Apollo killing cyclops story) -- some options I considered:

Kate Bishop Hawkeye
Merida from Brave
Robin Hood

... but ultimately, who would be better than Legolas?!

On the one hand, I am glad Hercules got rid of the Stymphalian birds (bc scary). On the other hand, i hate watching a bad-to-mediocre man fail upward so often...

It might not have won my #GoldStar for our #constellation Sagitta (listen here for more https://starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/e/sagitta-cosmic-background/), but I'm always gonna celebrate a globular cluster!!!

This is Messier 71, it's located 13,000 LY from Earth & 27 LY across.

Ever wondered, where exactly is Gaia 17bpi??

Welp, Spitzer has you covered!

Located in our #constellation of the month Sagitta, Gaia 17bpi is a young star that nom nommed (that's the technical term, I'm sure) some of the matter around it, causing the star to brighten.

Gaia 17bpi is a member of the FU Orionis class of stars (as an aside: FU orion *is* a thing I think, but that's not what it means here... you can find out more about that on our #orion #mythology pod here: https://starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/e/orion-myths-and-retconstellations/)
