What is a constellation?
Constellations are groups of stars that form visible figures in the sky when using a little bit of imagination. Astronomers from Mesopotamia, Greece and other ancient civilizations dedicated themselves to name them according to their beliefs and perspectives of the night sky.
The oldest constellation drawings date back from 4000 BC. Every civilization interested in astronomy studied these patterns and gave constellations a name of their own. For example, Sumerians matched “An,” the one who pours the water of immortality on Earth, with the constellation we know as Aquarius.
