Modern astronomers use 88 constellations to systematically name stars and designate regions of the sky. These objects are formed by bright stars in our sky that appear to be close to each other. Many of these constellations held specific cultural importance to different civilizations. We will look at several constellations and discuss the myths and legends they are associated with.
