Canis Major is one of the ancient constellations and is the larger of Orion’s two hunting dogs. The constellation sits at the heel of it’s master Orion, and is next to the smaller constellation of Canis Minor, The Little Dog. Canis Major represents Laelaps, the mythical dog who’s prey couldn’t escape him. The constellation hosts the brightest star on the whole nights sky, the star Sirius. This star is quite an average star, however is so bright in the sky as its so close to us.
