A field of view of at least 4 degrees is needed to encompass the entire asterism. It belongs to the larger ones and, thanks to stars of the fourth to sixth magnitude, it is quite prominent. The body of the dragon is not as regular as that of the smaller Kemble's Dragon, but its tail is nicely wavy. The tail is formed by four stars of seventh magnitude. The impression is marred by a multitude of other stars as we are in a rich part of the Milky Way. It is located roughly three degrees southeast of Ksora (δ Cas), also known as Ruchbah.

VIC: I don't know if the Ethiopian queen flew paper dragons; rather, the wind probably brought it to her from the neighboring Perseus. Whatever the case, it's worth a look with a small telescope.
