General presentation

The constellation of Virgo is the largest of the zodiac's constellations and one of the largest in the night sky. Visible mainly in spring in the northern hemisphere, it is easily spotted thanks to its main star, Spica, one of the brightest stars in the sky. Located on the ecliptic, the Virgin is crossed every year by the Sun, the Moon and the planets. It is also famous for hosting the Virgo galaxy cluster, one of the richest regions in galaxies observable from Earth.
