LY RA

Telescopes on land and in space give us this composite image of the Ring Nebula (M57) and the turbulent space around it.

LYRA (THE LYRE)

Visible: Northern emisphere

Best Seen: ummer

Main Stars: 5

Brightest Star: egaė œ.œŖ mag.

Deep-Sky Objects: M5řė M57

A ccording to Greek mythology, Lyra rep- resents a tiny lyre, or harp, belonging to Orpheus, the gied music maker capa- ble of taming wild beasts and charming Olympian gods. Resembling a small equilateral tri- angle latched onto a parallelogram, Lyra is one of the smaller yet more easily recognized classical stel- lar patterns in the sky. It appears wedged between two prominent constellations, Cygnus and Hercu- les. But what makes it particularly easy to spot is its brilliant star Vega, part of the famous Summer Tri- angle asterism. Vega forms one of the corners, with Deneb and Altair the others, making this giant tri- angle a handy reference point to three separate con- stellations in the summer. One of the brightest stars visible across the Northern Hemisphere, Vega is the h brightest star in the sky and is relatively nearby at only 25 light-years away. ree times the size of our own sun and producing 50 times as much light, blue-white Vega may be young and newly formed, only about 400 million years old.

SIZE ON THE SKY

ose with keen eyesight will notice that a star near Vega is actually an eye-catching pair of stars known as Epsilon Lyrae. Orbiting each other around their common center of gravity, they lie 175 light- years from Earth. Seen through a small telescope, these celestial twins will surprisingly reveal that both stars are themselves double, forming a spec- tacular quadruple star system known popularly as the Double Double. Lyra lies on the edge of the Milky Way band and so is rich with deep-sky treasures. e Ring Neb- ula, or M57, is 2,300 light-years away and visible with at least an 80-mm (3-in) aperture telescope, appearing as a faint doughnut-shaped cloud. is famous planetary nebula is formed by gas emitted by a dying star. e nebula looks circular from our perspective, but scientists have concluded that it is actually cylindrical. Large backyard scopes may reveal a faint star, a white dwarf, in the center of this celestial smoke ring. M56 is an eighth-magnitude globular cluster lying halfway between Gamma Lyrae and Albireo in Cygnus. Considered one of the fainter Messier glob- ulars, it is 33,000 light-years distant and so small that telescopes will reveal it only as a fairly bright, unresolved fuzzy ball.
