Well it's September let's see what constellations are out during September. She thumbed through her book until she found September constellations and read them Aquila, Capricornus, Cygnus, Delphinus, Equuleus, Indus, Microscopium, Pavo, Sagitta, and Vulpecula. Hmmm she thought which one could I see the best here as she looked into the sky. She got up and went to get a telescope after putting it together she got her notebook and book from where she was sitting. Hmmm she thought and then looked into the telescope. She looked back into her book she was sort of confused by the declination and latitudes. She looked back at her book. Well I think I am looking at a latitude of (looking back at the book) 15 and -90. Hmm she looked back into the telescope and sketched what she thought she saw

She looked at the sketch and then looked at the books pictures. She smiled the Pavo constellation or also named the Peacock was what she was looking at. She checked the telescope one more time. Yes that is exactly what she was looking at. Excited to identify the constellation she decided to check out other stars since she had the telescope already out. She looked longer at the stars and then put the telescope back when she was finished..
