Sirius is absolutely NOT the brightest star in the sky. Not even close.
How to actually find it: Find the big dipper (I know you know what it looks like). Take the two stars at the front end of the “cup” part. Draw a line through them “up” and out of the cup until you hit a star. That’s it.
PharmacokineticsI always thought Jupiter was the brightest star. Well, technically, not a star, but still, when I am (Turkey), it always shows up first, and it’s insanely bright.
What do you mean “technically” not a star? Jupiter has absolutely nothing to do with being a star, it’s a planet.
It fucking shines in the sky like a big bright star, motherfucker ✨️
You’re correct that Jupiter is the brightest object in the night sky besides (obviously) the sun and the moon.
The brightest star is Sirius, near the constellation Orion.
