[10/06, 22:16]Betelgeuse: Look at the sky and tell me who is there beside the moon.
[11/06, 06:47] Rigel: Was cloudy here yesterday
[11/06, 08:10]Betelgeus: Antares, জ্যেষ্ঠা
[11/06, 08:12]Rigel: That's alpha of Scorpio!
[11/06, 08:29]Betelgeus: দেখতে পেলি আমার ছবিতে?
[11/06, 08:33] Rigel: There's one that looks more like an artifact!
Between jyestha and Anuradha, I'm still confused as to which one of them corresponds to the alpha and beta of scorpius constellation
[11/06, 08:34] Rigel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Scorpius
[11/06, 09:22]Betelgeus: It's not artifact!😢
The sky was cloudy, bright moonlight, and my hand wasn't steady.
[11/06, 09:24]Rigel : Yes night images need a camera stand
[11/06, 09:25]Betelgeus: This was a mobile click
[11/06, 09:29]Rigel: Yes night images require a large amount of exposure time and would be very difficult with a hand held
[11/06, 16:37]Betelgeus: Antares is the red one, isn't it?
[11/06, 16:43] Rigel: Yes. So which one is Jyestha? Antares or?
[11/06, 16:44]Betelgeus: Antares.
Anurada is different
[11/06, 16:46]Rigel: Quoting from the wiki link above
Scorpius corresponds to the Hindu nakshatras Anuradha, Jyeshtha, and Mula
So if Antares is Jyestha, which one's in scorpius are Anuradha and Mula?
[11/06, 17:08] Betelgeus:
Anuradha Nakshatra Astrology:
The Anuradha Nakshatra consists of three stars – Beta, Delta, and Pi Scorpions. In the night sky, these three stars are visible in one straight line right above the bright red star, Antares.
[11/06, 17:09] Rigel: 👏👏 source?
[11/06, 17:09]Betelgeus: It's not a single star.
[11/06, 17:09] Rigel: Great image
[11/06, 17:10]Betelgeus: Don't know if it's reliable, astrology site
[11/06, 17:12]Betelgeus: https://www.ganeshaspeaks.com/ astrology/nakshatras- constellations/anuradha/
[11/06, 17:22]Betelgeus: মুলা মনে হয় নীচে। Sagittarius এর দিকে। খুঁজে পেলে বলিস
[11/06, 18:06]Betelgeus: পেয়ে গেছি!💃🏿
It's the tail, as I thought. Lambda scorpii is Mula. Or Shaula
[11/06, 18:07]Betelgeus: The blue one
[11/06, 18:14]Betelgeus: So, there's no confusion now!!
Happy?
[11/06, 19:55] Rigel: I remember confidently showing the star Antares as Anuradha to one of our co PGs in 1995 on a campus walk after dinner in upper cafe!
Her name was also Anuradha!
[11/06, 19:56] Rigel: Saw the blood red moon in the sky just now but the constellations couldn't be seen as they are clouded
