		It is the star pattern that the ancients made into the huge constellation of Argo Navis, the Ship, which currently occupies most of the sky down near the south and southwest horizon early evenings.
		But you'll be looking in vain for the name Argo on modern sky charts, for it officially passed out of existence in 1930, when the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined the presently recognized constellations and their boundaries.
		Argo was regarded as a ship by several early civilizations and has often been thought of as Noah's Ark. About 5,000-years ago it appeared farther north than it does now, thanks to wobbling motion of the Earth on its axis known as precession.
