Duboising The Twins

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!

Stars Castor, Pollux, Alhena, Wasat, Clown Nebula, Tejat Posterior, M35, NGC 2372 all make up this constellation. Although not all of these star names are featured in the Gemini Greek myth, Castor and Pollux are. The myth goes like this: Gemini, the constellation of course, represents two twins. Castor and Pollux, although they do not have the same father. Pollux's father is Zeus, also known as Jupiter in Roman mythology, who made their mother pregnant as a swan. And Caster's father, King Tyndarus of Sparta who is Lena's husband. Therefore, Pollux is immortal and Caster is not. Lena also had another child with Kind Tyndarus, Helen, also known as Helen of Troy. Continuing on with the story, Pollux, being immortal, was famous for his incredible strength and Castor was famed for his skill will horses. Other accomplishments include, both of them traveling as argonauts to find the Golden Fleece. As well as fighting in the Trojan war to help bring their sister, Helen home to her

They fought on the Trojan War and became Argonauts. Until the day Castor died and became desperate because he
