The Summer Triangle Credit: RA/DEC Astronomy team The Summer Triangle is an asterism. It consists of three bright stars: Deneb in the constellation Cygnus, Vega in Lyra and Altair in Aquila. It transits the meridian in mid-summer, but this triangle in the sky is visible for about 6 months, from late night in spring to early evening in autumn. This image is made combining several pictures taken from a very dark night site. (10567 × 8252 px) https://flic.kr/p/2rnpZD3 #fblifestyle | Greatest Minds
