 Carina --  Britannica Student Encyclopedia
Carina's brightest star, Canopus, is the second brightest star in the sky and is useful for navigational purposes in space exploration.
Lying in the southern constellation Carina, about 100 light-years from the Earth, Canopus is sometimes used as a guide in the attitude control of spacecraft because of its angular distance from the Sun and the contrast of its brightness among nearby celestial objects.
Carina is located far to the south in the Southern Hemisphere, never fully rising in the mid-northern latitudes.
