About VEGA
Vega, the third brightest star in the Northern Hemisphere, is one of the most easily recognized and thoroughly studied stars in the night sky. Vega lies at the vertex of a widely-spaced asterism – or noticeable star pattern – that constitutes the Summer Triangle, a unique triangular combination of stars visible in the northern hemisphere during the summer months. Easily spotted without the assistance of a telescope, Vega is recognized by its brilliant, blue-white color. Contrasting with the vast darkness of space, Vega shines as a dazzling beacon, acting as a checkpoint for explorers and adventurers throughout history.
Most importantly, however, Vega is the once and future North Star! Because Earth’s axis wobbles, Earth’s true North gradually shifts its aim between two different stars over a 26,000 year cycle. The current North Star, Polaris, has served as a compass for explorers and navigators throughout recorded history as they have relied upon the consistency of Polaris in the night sky for guidance.
However, the days of Polaris serving as that constant navigational checkpoint in the night sky are numbered, as the wobbling axis of the earth has begun its transition back to the once, and future, North Star…Vega. For the first time in recorded human history, we will begin to witness the influence of Vega on global navigation. Future generations will look to Vega, not Polaris, for guidance and direction. Vega will be the source of consistency in the night sky. Vega will be the constant by which future explorers will seek opportunity and safety. The future belongs to Vega!
It is with this same anticipation of the events and opportunities of the future that Vega Ventures was organized.
