The constellation Cygnus (The Swan) more closely resembling the Christian cross than a swan, is also known as The Northern Cross. This celestial bird flies down the Milky way, its wings outstretched and its neck pointing south.

Here The Northern Cross is shown in the northeast as it appears in June and July between 10:00 and 11:00 p.m.

From top to bottom the constellations present in this starscape are Lyra, The Northern Cross, Vulpecula, Sagitta, Delphinus, Lacerta, Equuleus and a portion of Pegasus.
