The Water Bearer. Best placed in June. It straddles the celestial equator, so it is visible from essentially anywhere on Earth at the right time of year.
Aquarius, known in English as the Water Bearer, is centred near right ascension 22.5 hours, declination -5°. It straddles the celestial equator, so it is visible from essentially anywhere on Earth at the right time of year.
It reaches its highest point in the sky around local midnight in June, which is when it is easiest to pick out. Earlier in the year it rises before dawn; later, it is already setting in the evening.
