By Carlos Parada, author of Genealogical Guide to Greek Mythology Perseus 1 Perseus 1 Relevant links Perseus 1 in GROUPS Perseus 1 was, as a child, cast into the sea in a chest together with his mother, whom Zeus had visited in the form of a stream of gold when she was held isolated. By accident, they say, Perseus 1 killed his grandfather, the man who had sent him and his mother into exile. Perseus 1 beheaded Medusa 1 , and later founded the city of Mycenae , where he became king. Prophecy and Birth When Danae 's father King Acrisius of Argos once questioned the oracle, it replied that Danae would give birth to a son who would kill him. Fearing that, he built a brazen chamber under ground where he guarded Danae . But Zeus had intercourse with her in the shape of a stream of gold which poured through the roof into the girl's lap. When her father afterwards learned that she had got a child, he would not believe that she had been seduced by

The bottom center galaxy is Perseus A (NGC1275), an extremely powerful radio galaxy that is second only to Centarus A in power. The smudge in the lower right corner is part of NGC1272. When I took this picture I was simply trying to capture the central part of the cluster. It was much later that I realized I had also picked up Perseus A. Based on the charts in the Webb Society Deep Sky Handbook I have blackened out all objects I know to be stars. Therefore, almost everything visible in this image is a galaxy. The dimmer galaxies here have magnitudes of about 14.5; not bad for

Perseus, the Rescuer of Andromeda, can be seen in late summer and autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. His quest was to bring back the head of Medusa, not knowing her whereabouts he went to the three sisters of Polydectes, who were blind and shared a glass eye. They refused to help him until he stole the eye and would not return it until they told him where to find Medusa. Using a shield given to him by Minerva, he avoided looking directly at Medusa and beheaded her. Pegasus sprang out of the Medusa's blood and he rode him back to Artos, where he found Andromeda chained to the rocks as a sacrifice to Cetus, using the Gorgons head, Cetus turned to stone. Perseus and Andromeda fell in love, both were placed among the stars. Bright Stars Deep Sky Other Deep Sky Variable Stars ... Double Stars

The eclipses last about 10 hours, so a significant brightening or dimming can easily be observed in one night. Its minima are listed in Sky and Telescope magazine every month, so if you haven't observed a variable star yet, give this one a try.

PERSEUS
The main body of Perseus, surrounding the bright star Mirfak (Alpha Persei), streams within the Milky Way to the left of center. Most of the stars clumped around Mirfak are part of the Alpha Persei cluster . To the right of center and a bit above Mirfak is the bright and famed eclipsing double star Algol, Beta Persei, which represents the head of the Medusa. Gamma is the brightest of the stars toward the upper left, while Xi and Zeta lie at lower right on a line parallel to the bottom of the photo. Delta is the brightest star just down and to the right of Mirfak. Perseus is home to the famed Double Cluster , not seen here but visible in the photo of the neighboring constellation Cassiopeia

Perseus
Perseus was one of the great heroes of classical mythology. He was the son of Jupiter and Danae, and is best known for his killing of the Gorgon Medusa. This was a rather complex task, as anyone who saw her hideous face would be turned immediately to stonethe Gorgons, according to Bulfinch, were "monstrous females with huge teeth like those of swine, brazen claws, and snaky hair" Bulfinch's Mythology . Perseus accomplishes it, however, by the aid of Pluto, Mercury and Minerva. Pluto lent his helmet of invisibility to Perseus, Mercury lent the hero his winged sandals, and Minerva allowed him the use of her shield. With the aid of the helmet and the sandals, Perseus was able to get within striking range without being detected by Medusa or the two immortal Gorgons. He then used the reflection on the shield to guide his killing blow, and flew off unharmed bearing the head of Medusa: He was bringing back the Gorgon's head, the memorable trophy he had won in his contest with that snaky-haired monster. As the victorious hero hovered over Libya's desert sands, drops of blood fell from the head. The earth caught them as they fell, and changed them into snakes of different kinds. So it came about that that land is full of deadly serpents. Thereafter, Perseus was driven by warring winds all over the vast expanse of sky: like a raincloud, he was blown this way and that. He flew over the whole earth, looking down from the heights of heaven to the land which lay far below Metamorphoses

There are only two references to Perseus and these both occur in the writings of Proclus . They give no indication of where he was born or where he lived. His dates can at least be put within certain bounds by the information given, but our knowledge is still almost nil. The first reference says that Perseus is associated with the discovery of the "spiric" curves in the same way as that of Apollonius is with conics . The second reference is taken from Geminus and says that Perseus wrote an epigram on his discovery (see for example [1]):- Three curves upon five sections finding, Perseus made offering to the gods... All that can be deduced with certainty is that Perseus must have lived before Geminus . Less certain, but still very reasonable, is the belief that conic sections must have been developed first so he would then have lived after Euclid wrote in say 300 BC. The references do not really give enough details to be able to tell what Perseus discovered. We do know what a spiric section is. Proclus defines a spiric surface as being the surface generated by a circle revolving about a straight line called the axis of revolution and always remaining in the same plane as this axis. There are three distinct types of spiric surfaces depending whether the axis of revolution cuts the circle, it a

Perseus in Myth

Perseus was the son of Zeus and Danae . His grandfather Acrisius, alarmed by an oracle which had told him that his daughter's child would be the instrument of his death, caused the mother and child to be shut up in a chest and set adrift on the sea. The chest floated towards Seriphus, where it was found by a fisherman who conveyed the mother and infant to Polydectes, the king of the country, by whom they were treated with kindness. When Perseus was grown up Polydectes sent him to attempt the conquest of Medusa , a terrible monster who had laid waste the country. She was once a beautiful maiden whose hair was her chief glory, but as she dared to vie in beauty with Athena , the goddess deprived her of her charms and changed her beautiful ringlets into hissing serpents. She became a cruel monster of so frightening an aspect that no living thing could behold her without being turned into stone. All around the cavern where she dwelt might be seen the stony figures of men and animals which had chanced to catch a glimpse of her and had been petrified with the sight. Perseus, favored by Athena and Hermes , the former of whom lent him her shield and the latter his winged shoes, approached Medusa while she slept, and taking care not to look directly at her, but guided by her image reflected in the bright shield which he bore, he cut off her head and gave it to Athena, who fixed it in the middle of her Aegis.
