The Constellation Research Paper

I have chosen the constellation Leo. I have chosen Leo because it is my horoscope sign. The real name of the constellation Leo is leonis which in translation means "the lion". Leo's right ascention is 11 hours, and its declination is 15 degrees. Leo is made up of 11 stars(regulus, denebola, algiebra, zosma, ras elased australius, adhafera, chort, al minliar asad, alterf, ras elesed borialas, subra). Leo is also one of the 13 constellations of the zodiac.

I chose the constellation Andromeda because the back story and myths it has really fascinates me! I feel that some of the myths behind the consolations can be rather boring, but with the romance and danger all wrapped into one, I continue going back to it. This constellation is the 19th largest in the sky and is located in the first quadrant of the northern hemisphere. It takes seven-hundred-twenty-two square feet in the sky!

1. I've chosen the constellation "Draco." I chose this one because it was the constellation that my mother always talked about when I was little. She'd tell me stories about it's stars and she'd always let me stay up late to look at it. Draco is the 8th largest constellation and has 9 stars, the brightest of which is Gamma Draconis. It belongs to the Ursa Major family.

I have chosen the Perseus Constellation. I chose that contallation because I have always liked the Greek Gods mythology. Perseus, named after the Greek Mythology hero, is a constellation in the Northen Sky. Perseus is bordered by Aries and Taurus to the south, Auriga to the east, Camelopardalis and Cassiopeia to the north, and Andromeda and Triangulum the west.

The constellation that I have chosen is Capricornus. Capricornus is one of the twelve zodiac constellations, and it symbolizes the sea-goat. The best time to see this constellation would be at ten o'clock at night in September and October, especially if you live in the Northern Hemisphere. I chose this constellation because according to Astrology I am a Capricorn and thought it would be interesting to know more about the constellation relating to my zodiac sign. Capricornus has five stars with planets in it's constellation.

My favorite constellation by far is the Gemini constellation. The Gemini constellation is my favorite because my star sign is Gemini. And it is fairly easy to spot in the night sky, although the best viewing month is in February.

When conceptualising the notion of a ‘constellation’, many definitions arise as to what the term represents and the ways to which it possesses a metaphorical significance. Such queries emerge throughout the duration of the contemporary theatre piece suitably entitled ‘Constellations’, written by English playwright Nick Payne, who effectively initiates controversy by implicitly alluding towards the perplexing concepts of parallel universes, nonlinear and possible infinite expanses of time, as well as the importance of individual choices and their relationship with the concept of fate/destiny. This exploitation of the power of subliminal manipulation is prevalent in most modern theatre as dramatic meaning is more effectively conveyed and

I chose the constellation, Orion. It is one of my favorites, because ever since I was little, I was able to find it, and it was cool to me. The constellation depicts a man, holding his shield in front of hi, and sword overhead. It signifies a hunter, attack his prey, especially since he follows other celestial animals, like Lepus, a rabbit, and Taurus, a bull.

The constellation I have picked is The Wolf or Lupus. I have chosen this constellation because I have a fascination for wolves and I find that this constellation is a good representation of that.Wolves are strong, fearless, and don't back down from a fight unless injured or killed.

I chose the Andromeda constellation because Greek mythology is very interesting to me, and I love the story behind this constellation. Andromeda is most prominent during autumn evenings in the Northern Hemisphere.

I've chosen the Canis Major constellation, I've chosen this one because I fancy dogs and I love the name Sirius and the star by itself; Canis Major contains Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, known as the "dog star", its bright because of its proximity to our Solar System. The constellation is best visible at 21:00 (9 p.m.) during the month of February and visible at latitudes between +60° and −90°.

The constellation I have chosen is Cancer. I chose this constellation because it is my zodiac sign. Naturally, I found it interesting to learn about and write an essay on my discovery and creation theory. Cancer is Latin for "Crab", The name was chosen because the representation of the the constellation is in fact a crab. The constellation is 506 sq. degrees and made up of faint stars.

I've chosen the Gemini constellation for my essay because it's my zodiac sign and I find it to be the most intriguing of the signs. Gemini was originated to be the twin constellation, representing twin brothers Castor and Pollux. These twins were the sons of Leda, brothers of Helen. However, they had different paternal figures.

The constellation I have chosen is Lyra, I have chosen this because not only is it beautiful it also has a wonderfully sad story behind it. Lyra is a rather small constellation occupying an area of around 286 square degrees and is located in the fourth quadrant of the northern hemisphere, it belongs to the Hercules family with other constellations such as Cratar, Ara and Serpens. Lyra is centered around other constellations such as Draco, Hercules and Cygnus. But even being surrounded by all these other constellations it still includes one of the brightest stars in the sky which is Vega, which happens to be the fifth brightest star.

Reason 1: The gods and goddesses lived in the sky with the stars. The gods are a mystery just like stars. So that gives them two connections. So they associated mystery with mystery and sky with sky.
