WHAT DOES ANTLIA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Antlia

Antlia

Antlia is a constellation in the southern sky. Its name means "pump" and it specifically represents an air pump. The constellation was created in the 18th century from an undesignated region of sky, so the stars comprising Antlia are faint. Antlia is bordered by Hydra the sea snake, Pyxis the compass, Vela the sails, and Centaurus the centaur. This group of constellations is prominent in the southern sky in late winter and spring. NGC 2997, a spiral galaxy, and the Antlia Dwarf Galaxy lie within Antlia's borders.

Definition of Antlia in the English dictionary

The definition of Antlia in the dictionary is a faint constellation in the S hemisphere close to Hydra and Vela.
