Antares,
which

Antares
is
a
red

large
that
it

up
our
entire
solar
system
if
placed
in
the
same
position
as
our
sun.
Other
notable
stars
in
Acrab
include
Shaula
and
Lesath,

form
the

stinger,
and
Dschubba,

marks
the
top
of
the
scorpion's
head. In
addition
to
its
striking
appearance,
Acrab
has
also
been
the
subject
of
many
myths
and
legends
throughout

In
ancient
Greek
mythology,
Scorpio
was
said
to
have
been
sent
by
the
goddess
Hera
to
kill
the
hero
Orion.
After
a
fierce
battle
between
the
two,
the
gods
decided
to
immortalize
both
Orion
and
Scorpio
in
the
night
sky,
so
they
could
continue
their
battle
for
all
eternity. Throughout
history,
Acrab
has
also
been
used
for
various
astrological
and
astronomical
purposes.
It
has
been
used
by
navigators
to
guide
ships,
by
astronomers
to
study
the
properties
of
stars,
and
by

to
read
the
signs
of
the
