00:00:04,533 --> 00:00:09,700
HI STARGAZERS; IF A CENTAUR WERE 
WEARING PANTS, WOULD IT BE ON 
JUST THE FRONT LEGS? JUST THE

2
00:00:09,700 --> 00:00:15,400
BACK ONES? OR ON ALL FOUR  LET’S 
CONTEMPLATE THIS CONUNDRUM WHILE 
WE FIND SAGITTARIUS IN THE SKY!

3
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,100
HIT THE DARKNESS AROUND 11PM AND 
LOOK SOUTH. YOU’LL SEE A SORT OF 
TILTED TEAPOT SHAPE OF

4
00:00:20,100 --> 00:00:25,166
EIGHT STARS. THAT’S AN ASTERISM 
INSIDE THE CONSTELLATION 
SAGITTARIUS THE ARCHER!

5
00:00:25,166 --> 00:00:28,633
THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THIS 
CONSTELLATION IS KAUS AUSTRALIS. 
THE FURTHER SOUTH YOU GO,

6
00:00:28,633 --> 00:00:29,766
THE MORE PROMINENT 
THE TEAPOT WILL BE.

7
00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:37,066
SAGITTARIUS IS AN OLD 
CONSTELLATION, DATING TO THE 
BABYLONIANS IN 1000 BCE. THEN,

8
00:00:37,066 --> 00:00:40,766
IT WAS LIKELY AN ANCIENT GOD, 
DESCRIBED AS BOTH A WARRIOR AND 
POWERFUL BULL.

9
00:00:40,766 --> 00:00:43,733
IT WAS THE GREEKS WHO MADE IT A 
CENTAUR  REPRESENTING THE ARCHER 
CROTUS,

10
00:00:43,733 --> 00:00:46,633
A FAVORITE OF THE MUSES WHO 
ASKED HE BE PUT IN THE SKY.

11
00:00:46,633 --> 00:00:49,100
THE ARCHER WILL BE VISIBLE FOR 
THE REST OF THE SUMMER. LET

12
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:59,733
ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE 
PANTS THING, AND KEEP LOOKIN’ 
UP!
