After about an hour of trying to get free, Gransel and Hetel saw a black figure walking toward them from a different part of the alley. The black figure came close to the twins and said, “Hello there.” It then turned on a small lamp beside the them. The thing that looked down on them was a beautiful young women. She wore a beautiful green dress, had long, brown hair that reached her belly, and her eyes were as blue as the sky on a clear day. Gransel and Hetel were very confused. They didn’t understand why someone as beautiful as her would kidnap

My chosen constellation is Gemini, a constellation of the Zodiac. I chose it because both me and my father, who had an important role in my interest for Astronomy, are Gemini. The constellation of Gemini, which means "twins" in Latin, was discovered by Ptolemy in the second century A.D. and it has 85 stars. The Alpha star is Pollux and the Beta star is Castor, which are the names of the two twin brothers that are associated with Gemini.

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.

O’ great muse, bestow upon me your divine knowledge and aid me in the telling of this tale. Speak to me of the two clever children whom the gods bestowed upon both fortunes and misfortunes. The two children who were abandoned by their unfortunate father and his cruel wife, far from home, only to find their way back to it. Allow me to tell of their encounters on their journey, of the horrible witch who trapped them in her alluring house made of the sweetest confections, and how they escaped her clutches.

My favourite constellation is Apus. Apus is also known as 'The Bird of Paradise'. It is called this as the Greek, who named the costellation, knew the bird of paradise to have no feet. By looking up at Apus, you can see the body figure but no feet. Apus also translates into 'no feet' in Greek. I chose this constellation because I am intrigued at why the bird of paradise, so to speak, has no legs and why this is so great. Apus intrigues my sense of curiosity as to it's origin and why it is called what it is.

The constellation I have chosen is Orion (“The Hunter”). I’ve chosen this constellation, because it was the first one I found in the sky without anyone else showing it to me. It was a February night in the South of France, and I still remember how cold it was, and how clear the sky - unlike anything I’d seen before.

Aquarius is the constellation I have chosen as it is the constellation from my zodiac from my year of birth. It outlines my behaviours, characteristics and fortunes. The Aquarius constellation appears in the sky between December and January. Aquarius is the sign for water bearers as the name Aquarius is Latin for "water carrier". Aquarius is one of the oldest constellations and can be seen in the northern and Southern Hemisphere.

The constellation I have chosen to write an essay about it the Pegasus constellation. I chose this constellation I love horses. They are one of my favorite animals. And the Pegasus is simply a horse, but with wings. It was first cataloged in the 2nd century by a Greek astronomer and named after the Greek myth of the Pegasus, the winged horse.

Constellations are pictures or shapes that ancient people discovered in the night sky. Some of the most popular constellations are the twelve Zodiac signs. Another famous constellation is Orion, or ‘The Hunter’. I chose to write about Orion because personally I love the story of how his constellation came to be. He is one of the main constellations I always notice in the night sky.

My favorite constellation, thats a tough one because I have several. But, since I have to choose one I would have to go with the constellation Pegasus. This is my favorite, because I like horses. I always did like the creature named Pegasus in the Disney movie Hercules. I also like how it's shaped in the night sky. Some information about Pegasus, is that it's located in the Northern sky. Pegasus is also a winged horse greek mythology.

For this essay, I chose the constellation Corona Borealis. It was one of 48 constellations listed by Ptolemy, an astronomer of the second century. Its Latin name is translated as “Northern Crown”, due to its crown-like shape. The brightest star in the constellation is Alpha Coronae Borealis, and is a magnitude 2.2 star. Other notable stars in the constellation include R Coronae Borealis, a yellow supergiant, and T Coronae Borealis, also known as the Blaze Star, which is a recurrent supernova. Corona Borealis covers 179 square degrees (0.433% of the sky), placing it 73rd in size of the 88 recognized constellations. It is positioned in the Northern Celestial Hemisphere, and is surrounded by Hercules (to the east), Boötes (to the north),
