Dipper handle
这条弧线由北斗的斗柄开始，沿著柄身的弧度，经过牧夫座的主星大角，最后到达室女座主星角宿一。
The curve stretches from the handle of the dipper to arcturus in bootes all the way down to spica in virgo.
值得注意的还有斗柄左数第二颗星“开阳”，它与临近的“开阳增一”是一对用于测试视力的肉眼可见双星系统。
Notable too in skygazing lore Mizar, second star from the left in the dipper's handle, forms a vision-testing visual double star with apparently close Alcor.
