My Favorite Constellation is Hercules. Hercules is the fifth largest constellation in the sky, occupying an area of 1225 square feet in the sky. I've chosen this constellation because I quite enjoy the Greek myth behind it.

Around 8 thousand years ago, Lylanna was born in a small village in Ashenvale, the only child of a caring and devoted mother. Though, unfortunately for the newborn, prejudice spiked among the rest of the people whence they saw the child. Tainted with demonic energy at birth, they saw her as not only a half elf, but a spawn of their nightmares. Lylanna’s mother, Thesiya, stayed loyal to her child and tried to ignore the comments and threats from everyone else, for her love for Lylanna was truly unconditional.

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!

Lyra, Apollo's gift of a harp to the poet Orpheus. Lyra is one of the smallest, yet beautiful and rich constellations in the heavens. Its mythology is rich and the constellation assisted greatly in travel in the Northern Hemisphere. Vega, one of the brightest star in the sky is also apart of Lyra. This constellation was first discovered by the Egyptian Muggle Astronomer Ptolemy during the 2nd Century. Ptolemy first interpreted Lyra as the Greek instrument of the lyre, as the outer stars took the form of the frame, with the inner stars forming the strings. The tale surrounding Orpheus was developed later after its discovery

I have chosen to use the constellation Andromeda. I chose it, because I did not know much about it and enjoyed doing a bit of research over this particular constellation. The constellation Andromeda was first catalogued by Ptolemy. It’s the nineteenth biggest constellation and the brightest start is Alpheratz.

1. I've chosen the constellation "Draco." I chose this one because it was the constellation that my mother always talked about when I was little. She'd tell me stories about it's stars and she'd always let me stay up late to look at it. Draco is the 8th largest constellation and has 9 stars, the brightest of which is Gamma Draconis. It belongs to the Ursa Major family.

I have chosen the Perseus Constellation. I chose that contallation because I have always liked the Greek Gods mythology. Perseus, named after the Greek Mythology hero, is a constellation in the Northen Sky. Perseus is bordered by Aries and Taurus to the south, Auriga to the east, Camelopardalis and Cassiopeia to the north, and Andromeda and Triangulum the west.

The constellation that I have chosen is Capricornus. Capricornus is one of the twelve zodiac constellations, and it symbolizes the sea-goat. The best time to see this constellation would be at ten o'clock at night in September and October, especially if you live in the Northern Hemisphere. I chose this constellation because according to Astrology I am a Capricorn and thought it would be interesting to know more about the constellation relating to my zodiac sign. Capricornus has five stars with planets in it's constellation.

In To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee’s depiction of Scout’s personality and aspects differs from the stereotyped ideal little girl. Lee uses Scout’s environment and relations to influence her persona. Jem has an effect on her character, for he told Scout when she was young that she “was being a girl” (Lee 54). Scout wants her brother’s approval and she wants to play with him which takes away from her femininity. Aunt Alexandra influences Scout differently compared to Jem.

Cassiopeia is the constellation I have chosen. It is a very interesting constellation, comprised of various stars named with a Greek letter followed by Cassiopeiae (e.g. Alpha Cassiopeiae). The stars also have various traditional names of other origin, for instance Alpha is traditionally called Shedir from Arabic. I chose the constellation partly because I like the name, but it also has interesting origins and I am glad I looked up more details about it.

My favorite constellation by far is the Gemini constellation. The Gemini constellation is my favorite because my star sign is Gemini. And it is fairly easy to spot in the night sky, although the best viewing month is in February.

Scorpius means scorpion in Latin, and it is a zodiac sign, although its name is changed to Scorpio. It is in the southern hemosphere, and it lies between Sagittarius and Libra.
