Monoceros or The Unicorn is one of the 88 constellations modern astronomers have divided the sky into. It's part of the Orion constellation family. Monoceros is best seen in February (from latitudes +75° to -85°)
Dutch theologian and cartographer Petrus Plancius depicted this constellation in 1612. The unicorn has long been regarded as a Christian symbol of purity. Two of the most notable stars in Monoceros are Plaskett’s star and HD 48099. Plaskett’s star is possibly the most massive binary systems known today. HD 48099 is 350,000 times more luminous than the Sun.
