Constellation Dragon - Lemizh grammar and dictionary

Constellation Dragon (fxÌc.)

The Dragon, or Draco in our nomenclature, is flying with his wings raised towards the North Pole, looking south at the Stag to challenge it. His left wing consists of the four stars that make up the body of Ursa Minor, the lesser bear, in our tradition.

In one legend, the Dragon was defeated by a clever contraption of the Craftsman’s (now called the Mechanic); in another, he was a cursed boy who was subsequently healed by the Lion.

The 158 naked-eye stars

In the ‘Our designation’ column, letters (sometimes with superscript numbers) in front of constellation symbols refer to Bayer’s catalogue or to variable star designations, and numbers to Flamsteed’s catalogue. Row colours roughly approximate the stars’ colours. The links lead to the stars’ entries in the SIMBAD Astronomical Database.
