Winter Sky Panorama (with star names)

This is a panorama of the main constellations of the northern winter sky, from Orion in the south (bottom) to Auriga in the north (top), with the Milky Way running down the frame. This area of sky contains loads of bright stars and is prominent all thru the winter months.

Brightest stars:

— Capella in Auriga, 
— Aldebaran and the Pleiades in Taurus,
— Betelgeuse, Rigel and the Belt Stars in Orion
— Procyon in Canis Minor
— Castor and Pollux in Gemini
Just off the frame below Orion is Sirius in Canis Major.

earthandscience:

From NOAA: Record and near-record breaking temperatures dominated the eastern two-thirds of the nation and contributed to the warmest March on record for the contiguous United States, a record that dates back to 1895. The average temperature of 51.1 degrees F was 8.6 degrees F above the 20th century average for March
But remember, 2010 was the hottest year on record. That was the year before last. And the scientific community is surer than ever that an ever-increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere (according to the Earth Systems Lab, we’re now at 394 parts per million) is driving the change.
In other words, we are now staring up the face of an Everest-esque mountain of scientific evidence that suggests human activity is the culprit behind the blue marble’s warming climate. We are frequently breaking record temps we should not be breaking. Extreme weather phenomena continues to line up with climate scientists’ models. Global warming is here, boys and girls. You just lived through three months of it.
