oom Add Page Insert Table 2. Now let's look at the constellations. To display the constellations, open the Sky and viewing options window again, and click on the "Starlore" tab. Check the boxes labeled "Show labels" and "Show boundaries". This will display the constellation names and boundaries on the night sky. Close the Sky and viewing options window, and locate the constellations that the following points are within: Right Ascension Declination 01h 00m +40° 00' 05h 30m 00° 00' 07h 00m -22° 00' 08h 00m -55° 00' 10h 50m +17° 00' 11h 30m +55° 00' 15h 30m -15° 00' Constellation 3. Below is a list of 20 deep sky objects from the Messier catalog (the "M" is for Messier). We will use Stellarium to gather information on this group of objects. To find an object, move your cursor to the left side of your screen to bring up the vertical menu again, and click the "Search window" icon. The first object is M1. Type this object name in the box in the Search window and press "Enter". Stellarium should now move to MI. Information on this object is found in the text box in the upper right corner of the screen (where you found the star names for part 1). Record proper name of the object as well as its type (nebula, galaxy, cluster, or "cluster with nebulosity") below. You can also see what the object looks like in greater detail by using the scroll wheel on your mouse to "Zoom in". Object M1 M8 M16 M20 M27 M31 Proper Name Type
