Observation of the Aquarius constellation

Visualize in real time the position of the Aquarius constellation in the sky.

General presentation

The constellation of Aquarius is one of the largest constellations in the zodiac. Visible mainly in autumn in the northern hemisphere, it is composed of relatively faint stars, making it more difficult to spot than neighbouring constellations. Located on the ecliptic, it is crossed by the Sun, the Moon and the planets. Aquarius is also known to host several deep-sky objects, including globular clusters and planetary nebulae.

Shape of the Aquarius constellation

The constellation of Aquarius takes the form of a man pouring water. Several star alignments evoke the flow of water that seems to flow south. The whole forms a vast and diffuse constellation that requires a dark sky to be fully observed.
