Virgo constellation

I have chosen Virgo as my constellation. The reasons are that it is my Zodiac sign, and it's meaning is "The Virgin". I have also chosen it because it's traits describe me. The traits are: analytical, observant, helpful, reliable, precise, skeptical, fussy, inflexible, cold, and interfering. Virgo is tied with the Greek goddess Persephone. Persephone was abducted and taken to the underworld by Hades. Persephone lived with Hades and they fell in love. In revenge, her mother, Demeter, ruined

For many years constellations have played an important role in different societies and culture, from one generation to the other.

What are Constellations? Constellations are groups of stars that form a particular shape in the sky and have been given a name. The word "constellation" comes from a Latin term meaning, "set with the stars." People of ancient time saw the constellations as characters or animals in the sky. Those people told myths about constellations, to explain how they appear to look in the night sky. The night sky is divided into eighty-eight constellations, or star patterns. Constellations can usually be seen

if not all of the titles upon the constellations as we know them today. Earth’s atmosphere comprises eighty-eight constellations, of which I have chosen the following five to discuss for my laboratory report: Andromeda, Big Dipper, Cassiopeia, Cepheus, and Draco The

I have chosen the Orion constellation, or the hunter constellation as some call it. I chose this constellation because it is a beautiful constellation. Orion is the brightest and most beautiful of the winter constellations. Some of its stars, including Betelgeuse and Rigel, are among the brightest stars. While it was named after the hunter in Greek mythology it is definitely not stealthy. Orion is one of the most prominent and recognizable constellations in the sky and can be seen throughout the

The constellation I have chosen to write about is Orion. This is one of the most famous constellations in the night sky. I chose this one because as I stated, it is very famous, and because it is one of those constellations that I have seen many times. Orion is a hunter, so the constellation shows a man holding a club and shield. It is easily recognized by the three stars in a line that form the hunter's belt. The myth of Orion is an interesting one. Orion was known as a hunter in Greek mythology

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

I'm choosing the Pegasus constellation because the myth/legend of it is very interesting and I have quite a similar personality. It is the seventh largest constellation in the sky. The 8 named stars are—Markab, Scheat, Algenib, Enif, Homan, Matar, Baham, and Salm. Markab is the brightest star in Pegasus. In Greek mythology, Pegasus was a white winged-horse. The most famous/well known myth involving Pegasus is the one of Bellerophon, the hero who was sent by King Iobates of Lycia to kill the Chimera

I chose the constellation Cassiopeia because it is a constellation that I already heard about but I did not know its history. So, it is a constellation, discover by Ptolemy, which are makes up of 5 main stars. These stars have the form of a "W" or a "M" depending of its position. The name of the constellation comes from the Greek myth of the queen Cassiopeia (Κασσιόπεια). She was the queen of Aethiopia. She was married to the king Cepheus and they had one daughter, Andromeda. Cassiopeia was boastful

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.
