(lat. Triangulum Australe) is a constellation of the southern hemisphere of the sky, lying south of Angolum partially in the Milky Way. The brightest star is 1.9 apparent magnitude. It occupies an area of 110 square degrees in the sky and contains 32 stars visible to the naked eye.
Its closest neighbors are the constellations , Bird of Paradise, Compass and Square.
On a clear and moonless night, about 20 stars can be distinguished with the naked eye in this constellation. With the exception of three, all the rest are at the limit of visibility with the naked eye. The three brightest stars (one of the second and two of the third magnitude) are the brightest not only in the constellation Southern Triangle, but also in the neighboring regions of the celestial sphere. It is these three stars that form a triangle that attracts the attention of residents of southern countries, and this explains the name of the constellation.
This constellation is not visible on the territory of Ukraine and the Russian Federation. Full visibility is at latitudes south of +20°. The best viewing conditions are June.
Story
New constellation. It was proposed as a separate constellation on the celestial globe of Plancius in 1589. Introduced into scientific practice by Johann Bayer in 1603 in his star atlas Uranometry.

Story
Southern Triangle- a new constellation. Its history intersects with the history of the appearance of the Southern Cross in the sky and celestial maps. The Southern Cross and Triangulum Southern are two iconic constellations in the southern sky.
Like the Southern Cross, the Southern Triangle is strangely mentioned by Dante in the Divine Comedy (Purgatory, VIII, 88-90), as a counterpoint to the description of the four stars of the Southern Cross (Purgatory, I, 22-23)
... "The ones you saw before dawn,
They bowed down, all four, in due time;
They were replaced by this three-star.”
(But according to other researchers of Dante's work, these are the three bright stars of the southern hemisphere of the sky - Canopus, Achernar and Fomalhaut. None of them are included in the Southern Triangle.)
The Divine Comedy was written in the first quarter of the 14th century and it is not entirely clear where its author got information about the constellations of the southern hemisphere, inaccessible at that time. However, nothing is impossible here, because the Arabs at that time could easily reach the equator along the eastern coast of Africa, where Somalia is.
For the first time documented, the stars of the Southern Cross appear in a drawing by Master Joao ( Maitre Joao). This is a Spanish navigator who sailed under the Portuguese flag and reached Brazil in 1500 at latitude 18° south. In a simple drawing without a grid or any figures, we recognize the Southern Triangle, as well as the two stars of Centaurus (α and β), and the constellations Southern Cross and Fly.
A little later, in 1502, Amerigo Vespucci ( Amerigo Vespucci) probably describes the three stars of this particular constellation as a regular triangle nine and a half degrees from the pole.
Plancius understood that the coordinates of two constellations (Cross and Triangulum) were inaccurate and “corrected” them in the globes of 1592 and 1594 - despite the fact that other cartographers had decided not to use them for the time being. Finally, in 1598, after astronomical observations by Houtman and Keyser during
