	[[Boötes]] is a constellation in the northern sky, located between 0° and +60° declination, and 13 and 16 hours ofright ascension on the celestial sphere. The name comes from the Greek Βοώτης, Boōtēs, meaning herdsman orplowman (literally, ox-driver; from boos, related to the Latin bovis, “cow”). The "ö" in the name is a diaeresis, not an umlaut, meaning that each 'o' is to be pronounced separately.
