未だ「冬のダイアモンド」が日本上空に見えます

　皆さん、少し寒いけれど、外に出て夜空を見上げてください。人類が誕生する前から宇宙に存在してる「冬のダイアモンド」が今宵も日本上空に広がってます。午後９時を過ぎると頭上より少し西に移動します。

　オリオン座が分かればオリオン座を含めて巨大な六角形が確認できます。右上に星が固まってます。それは「スバル星団」です。ダイアモンドの一番下が除夜の鐘が鳴るとき真南に来るシリウスです。この星は最も明るく一月一日の基準の星です。

 Everyone, it's a bit cold these days, but please go outside and look up at the night sky. The “Winter Diamond” that has existed in space before the birth of mankind has spread over Japan tonight as well. After 9 pm, they move a little west from overhead.

 If you discver Orion, you can see a huge hexagon including Orion. The stars are solidified in the upper right. It is the "Subaru Cluster". At the bottom of the diamond is Sirius which comes to due south when the night bell rings on January 1st. This star is the brightest in the sky.
