18.06 The Square of Pegasus
The winged horse of Greek mythology, born from the blood of Medusa after she was slain by Perseus, who can be found nearby in the sky. This is an autumn constellation.
The most famous feature in the constellation is the great square outlined by 4 stars. This is similar to the Plough, in that the square of Pegasus is not a constellation but an asterism.
