A small but prominent constellation in the southern sky, not visible in our latitudes. It is located in the Milky Way, surrounded by the Norma, the Circinus, the Octant and the Telescope, so this part of the sky can be considered part of the equipment of the navigators of old. The three bright stars of the constellation shine at the vertices of an isosceles triangle, which is easy to find in the sky because of its regular shape and its proximity to Toliman and Hadar of Centaur. At its northern edge, the diffuse open cluster NGC 6025 can be seen with the naked eye on a good night.
