L'Auriga è una costellazione settentrionale. È una delle 48 costellazioni elencate da Tolomeo, ed è anche una delle 88 costellazioni moderne. La sua stella più brillante è Capella (α Aurigae), associata alla mitologica Amaltea; le tre stelle adiacenti (ε, ζ e η Aurigae) sono invece chiamate «i capretti». Luminosa e appariscente, l'Auriga è un punto di riferimento imprescindibile per l'identificazione di un buon numero di stelle e costellazioni nei cieli autunnali e invernali.
