In episode 2 of The Celestial Tales, we explore the recognisable constellation of Cygnus through the tale of Orpheus, from Ancient Greek mythology.
We'll join Orpheus on two of his quests as he discovers the power of music and learns that, when a god is giving you instructions that your life depends on, you really should be listening carefully!
We'll discuss just some of the many interesting objects in and around Cygnus, including two very famous asterisms (and get clearer on what asterisms are).
Content warnings:
While nothing is graphic, there are themes of death and grief in this episode - frequently mentioned from 14 minute mark onwards.
