Corona Australis

A small constellation of the southern hemisphere. It lies at the south-western edge of Sagittarius, north of Telescopium (between RA=18h and RA=19h 20m, DECL=-37 degrees and DECL=-45 degrees).
As Corona Australis is located at the edge of the Milky Way it is still an interesting constellation for observations although it is so small.
On 25th of September 1997 the Hubble Space Telescope sends a picture of a neutron star alone in space located in this constellation.
