Draco constellation. Artwork of a dragon showing the outline of the constellation of Draco (the Dragon). The stars of this constellation are found near the north celestial pole, marked by Polaris (centre right), the bright pole star. Below and left of Polaris, just right of the dragons left- hind leg, are the four stars that form the bowl shape found in the Ursa Minor constellation. Draco is sometimes identified with the beast from Greek mythology that guarded the golden apples of the Garden of the Hesperides, and was killed by Hercules

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the majestic Draco constellation, beautifully depicting a dragon in its celestial form. The intricate outline of the mythical creature is composed entirely of stars that make up this northern constellation. Positioned near the north celestial pole, marked by Polaris (the bright pole star), Draco holds a prominent place in our night sky. The artist's skillful portrayal highlights not only the dragon but also includes other significant stellar formations. Just to the right of Draco's left-hind leg, we can observe four stars forming a distinctive bowl shape belonging to the Ursa Minor constellation. This artistic representation provides an opportunity for stargazers and astronomy enthusiasts to appreciate both constellations simultaneously. Draco has long been associated with Greek mythology as it is believed to be linked to the beast that guarded the golden apples in Hercules' quest. This connection adds depth and intrigue to our understanding of this cosmic formation. Science Photo Library presents us with yet another remarkable piece that seamlessly merges science, artistry, and mythology into one captivating image. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of humanity's enduring fascination with both our natural world and our collective imagination reaching far beyond what meets the eye in our night sky.
