Located near Alpha Centauri, this is a small constellation in the Southern Hemisphere that cannot be seen from Japan. It does not attract much attention because it is made up of faint stars below Alpha Centauri, which is 3rd magnitude. It is one of the new constellations established by the 18th century French astronomer Lacaille.
