Lyra Crew
Welcome to The Lyra Crew!
Staff Crew: Miss Humphreys, Miss Russell and Mr Kirk
Lyra is a small constellation. Stargazers thought its main pattern looked like a lyre, a small stringed harp. Each star has a part to play in the crew's shape. It contains Vega, the brightest star in the crew. It is easy to spot during summer months and is shaped like a compact parallelogram, with Vega nearby.
Fun fact: Apollo gave Orpheus a magical lyre—its parts worked together like our class crew!
VEGA: Crew leader of Lyra
Brilliant Blue Star: Vega is the brightest star in Lyra, so it helps us find the rest of the crew. It shines with a striking blue-white glow: Located 25 light-years from Earth; Twice as heavy as our Sun; High apparent magnitude makes it super easy to find.
The Ring Nebula
Inside Lyra lies M57, the Ring Nebula. It is a glowing shell of gas cast off by a dying star long ago. Even faraway objects can become part of Lyra's space story. It is shaped like a cosmic doughnut, visible through backyard telescopes and is expanding into surrounding space!
To start the year, Lyra Crew will be considering what it takes to be a supportive crew that never leaves a crew member behind. Without every one of us, there is none of us! We will be demonstrating respect, courage, compassion, integrity, craftsmanship and quality throughout all that we do. We will take on new experiences and show true determination to 'give it a go' with the help of others.
Lyra may be a small constellation but we will shine the brightest!
