ASTRONOMY AND THE SOLAR SYSTEM
CANIS MAJOR
Canis Major is a constellation in the southern celestial hemisphere. In the second
century, it was included in Ptolemy's 48 constellations, and is counted among the
88 modern constellations. Its name is Latin for "greater dog" in contrast to Canis
Minor, the "lesser dog"; both figures are commonly represented as following the
constellation of Orion the hunter through the sky. The Milky Way passes through
Canis Major and several open clusters lie within its borders, most notably M41
