Constellation Vulpecula (The Fox)

Vulpecula or The Fox is one of the 88 constellations modern astronomers have divided the sky into. It's part of the Hercules constellation family. Vulpecula is best seen in September (from latitudes +90° to -55°)

The fox is found between the bright stars Altair in Aquila and Vega in Lyra inside the band of the Milky Way. The constellation introduced in 1687 by the Polish astronomer Johannes Hevelius, depicted it as a double figure of a fox, Vulpecula, carrying in its jaws a goose, Anser. Since then the goose has flown (or been eaten), leaving just the fox. Hevelius placed the fox near two other hunting animals, the eagle, and the vulture.
