The last of the mid-southern star maps features most of Capricornus the Sea Goat, Microscopium the Microscope, Piscis Austrinus the Southern Fish, and Grus the Crane — the only star figure in this region that resembles its namesake. We've also passed the Milky Way, so many more galaxies appear to populate this region.
