Orion Poem

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!

One of the most familiar constellations in the night sky aside from the Big and Little Dipper is Orion, the Hunter. Made identifiable by the three bright stars that make up "Orion's Belt", Orion is easily recognized throughout the world due to the convenient position upon the celestial equator, allowing the constellation to be seen from both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. I chose this constellation as my favorite because it was, in fact, one of the first myths that I had ever learned, and also because it was the easiest constellation that I was able to find from my Constellation Atlas as a child. The constellation of Orion is comprised of mostly of blue stars: young, hot burning, giant stars that range from 243 light years to 1,359

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.

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.

I have chosen the constellation Leo. I have chosen Leo because it is my horoscope sign. The real name of the constellation Leo is leonis which in translation means "the lion". Leo's right ascention is 11 hours, and its declination is 15 degrees. Leo is made up of 11 stars(regulus, denebola, algiebra, zosma, ras elased australius, adhafera, chort, al minliar asad, alterf, ras elesed borialas, subra). Leo is also one of the 13 constellations of the zodiac.

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.

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.

Orion was one of the males trying to court Artemis. He was a hunter, so that was in his favor. She accepted him, but only as a friend. She warned him that if he tried to marry her, than she would fight him until he was out of sight. He agreed, but couldn't help liking her. After all, who wouldn't like her? Artemis was a feisty, strong hunter, and so was he. They were perfect for each other. Or so he thought. A few months later, he asked for her hand in marriage, and she refused. Furious and heartbroken, Orion challenged her to a fight. If he won, she would marry him. If she won, he would be out of her sights and gone for good. The fight lasted for days. Each of them fought brilliantly, suffering minimal injuries. Then, on the third day, Artemis took out Orion's eye. After that, Orion fought poorly, misaiming and throwing himself off balance. Finally, on the seventh day, he surrendered. He stumbled away from Artemis's camp, and came upon Hephaestus. Hephaestus ended the hunter's pain, healing his wounds and giving him a laser eye to replace his long gone other. In conclusion, I think no other constellation could compare with Orion and his wonderful, yet gruesome, creation

As time went on and medications changed, his father 's mood evened out, although the fear remained that someday the switch would flip again. For a long time, the werewolf was silenced, no full moon to pull him back to his primal form. Eventually, though, the day came when he howled again.
