Words To Describe Andromeda

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!

The King of Ethiopia was told by an Oracle that he must sacrifice his daughter in order to save his country. The panicked King chained poor Andromeda to a cliff by the sea. However, before the sea monster could eat Andromeda, a hero saved her from death and killed the sea monster. This is one of the few Greek myths with a relatively happy ending- the hero and Andromeda married and Athena put Andromeda into the stars upon her death. Although Andromeda's myth has a happy ending, it seems to also betray the belief that women are either vain or too weak to stand up for themselves.

The Andromeda Constellation is located in the northern hemisphere, it can be seen at latitudes between +90°and -40° and is best visible at 9 p.m. during the month of November. The constellation is, also, home to the Andromeda Galaxy, that resides 2,5 light-years from earth. This constellation is beyond complex, for the myth that names it, as well for being next doors neighbors with it's galaxy, thus my interest in it.

Orion is my favorite constellation because it is one of the easiest to find and most recognizable. This makes it one of the most popular constellations. Orion's belt includes the three brightest stars in the sky. In the Northern Hemisphere, Orion is a fall and winter constellation, visible from November to February. One of Orion's "stars" is actually a nebula, the Orion nebula.

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.

The Queen Cassiopeia boasted of the beauty of his daughter, and likened it to the Nereids, daughters of the God of the sea Poseidon. Sea goddesses, in response to this affront, Poseidon demanded revenge and it was like this sent a sea monster (Cetus) to destroy the coasts of the country. Cepheus went to the Oracle of Zeus who advised him as the only way to calm the anger of the gods and get rid of the monster was sacrificing his daughter Andromeda attaching it to a rock on the cliff so that the Monster

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.

My favorite constellation would have to be Orion. I chose this because I've always thought it would be cool to be shooting down starry prey while soaring among the stars. Orion is a hunter. He is forever in the stars hunting down meals and criminals. To me, Orion seemed like a tough guy. He's by himself in the stars, waiting for someone or something to come his way and end his seemingly endless lonely universe. That's why I chose Orion and a little information on this great hunter.

During this journey, they stopped at Larissa where Perseus joined a game of discus in which the disk Perseus threw, flew and hit a man in the head killing him. This man was Acrisius, proving the Oracle right. After his father's funeral, Perseus continued on and later received blessing from Andromeda's father, King Cepheus of Phoenicia, to marry her and together they rode on Pegasus back to Seriphos.Once Perseus and Andromeda reached Seriphos, Dictys greeted them. He told Perseus of how Polydectes has made Danae his hand maiden upon refusal to marriage. Infuriated by the mistreat of his mother, he had Dictys take care of Andromeda while he sought revenge. He stormed through the castle halls and slammed through the great hall in which the king and his courtiers were having a feast. Perseus swept the now silent room with his eyes in search for his mother. When he saw her standing behind the king, he walked up among all the shocked people that quickly made way for him. When he stood below Polydectes, he told his mother to move away. Perseus drew the wretched head from the satchel with Medusa's face towards the king's
