Southern Cross

Image Description and Details : One of the most iconic constellation of the southern hemisphere. It lies on the southern end of the Milky Way. Even though it is the smallest of all 88 modern constellations, Crux is among the most easily distinguished as its four main stars each have an apparent visual magnitude brighter than +2.8. It has attained a high level of cultural significance in many Southern Hemisphere states and nations.
