NOW you now why it’s called the Dog Star. Anyway, here are your complementary Canis Major facts:

Canis Major intersects the Milky Way.

Canis Major contains the neutron star RX J0720.4-3125 with a radius of 5km, and the red star hypergiant VY Canis Majoris with a radius of 990’000’000km.

Canis Major is the only dog constellation which actually looks like a dog.

Yayy! The educational strips are back. Here are some complementary Sirius facts:

Sirius is technically a binary star system made up of Sirius A – a star twice the size of the Sun – and Sirius B – a white dwarf.

Sirius B is so tiny it wasn’t observed until 1862.

The word ‘Sirius’ is the Latinised form of the Ancient Greek word for ‘glowing’.

Sirius is sometimes called the ‘Dog Star’ for reasons that will become apparent in the next comic.
