Expected Behaviour

Actual Behaviour

Steps to reproduce

(install_dir)/skycultures/hawaiian_starlines/

description.en.utf8
Line 70
"The northern pointer is found in the Navigator’s Triangle when you connect Hawaiki (Deneb) and Momonapikowalu (γ Cyg, Sadr). "

The Line (Connect Deneb and γ Cyg) does not face north.

According to this website:
http://archive.hokulea.com/ike/hookele/hawaiian_star_lines.html
https://archive.hokulea.com/images/navigation_and_weather/manaiakalani.jpg
Maybe, not γ Cyg but ε Cyg.

I don't know which stars are Momonapikowalu: γ Cyg or ε Cyg.
