What Is a Constellation?

Laura Loria

To bring some semblance of order to the vast night sky, ancient astronomers assigned patterns to the stars that shown around them. These became known as constellations. This book provides insight into the scientific aspects of constellations as star maps and navigation tools. Readers will survey the more fanciful interpretations including a discussion of the zodiac. Stories associated with some of the most recognizable constellations and boxed inserts posing critical-thinking questions round out the coverage.
