An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The modern constellation Crux is not included in the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions system of traditional Chinese uranography because its stars are too far south for observers in China to know about them prior to the introduction of Western star charts. Based on the work of Xu Guangqi and the German Jesuit missionary Johann Adam Schall von Bell in the late Ming Dynasty, this constellation has been classified as one of the 23 Southern Asterisms (近南極星區, jìn nán jí xīng qū) under the name Cross (十字架, shí zì jià).

  • The modern constellation Crux is not included in the Three Enclosures and Twenty-Eight Mansions system of traditional Chinese uranography because its stars are too far south for observers in China to know about them prior to the introduction of Western star charts. Based on the work of Xu Guangqi and the German Jesuit missionary Johann Adam Schall von Bell in the late Ming Dynasty, this constellation has been classified as one of the 23 Southern Asterisms (近南極星區, jìn nán jí xīng qū) under the name Cross (十字架, shí zì jià). Possibly Acrux (Alpha Crucis), Mimosa (Beta Crucis) and Gacrux (Gamma Crucis) are bright stars in this constellation that never seen in Chinese sky. The name of the western constellation in modern Chinese is 南十字座 (nán shí zì zuò), meaning "the southern cross-shaped constellation". (en)
  • 十字架 相當於現代星座的南十字座,因為其中的恆星都遠離中原地區,要在南方才能看見,所以不包括在傳統的三垣和二十八宿系統之內。直到明朝後期,徐光啟和德國傳教士湯若望編輯《崇禎曆書》才依據西方的星座圖將它們加入中國的星官中。這個南半球的星座在中國被列入近南極星區的23個星官,命名為十字架。 這個星官中最亮的幾顆星:十字架一 (南十字γ,Gacrux)、十字架二 (南十字α,Acrux)、十字架三 (南十字β,Mimosa),之前在中國的天空中可能都未曾見過。 這個星官在西方的星座名稱是南十字座,意思就是南天的十字架形狀星座。 (zh)
