In this book, we’re going to talk about the constellations in the night sky. So, let’s get right to it!
A constellation is composed of stars. The stars may be millions of light years away from each other, but in the night sky they form a pattern when they are observed from Earth.
WHAT IS A CONSTELLATION?
Orion Nebula
The pattern might look something like a person or it might look like an animal or other object. Some of the stars in a constellation might look a lot brighter than others. Most of the constellations don’t look much if anything like the objects they are supposed to be.
Our ancient ancestors knew the skies very well. They used the constellations as a way to keep track of time throughout the year so they knew the right time to plant their crops and when to harvest them. They also used them like a map for navigation.
WHY DID ANCIENT PEOPLE USE THE CONSTELLATIONS?
Ursa Minor
