What are the names of the constellations?

Constellations are groups of stars that when seen from Earth appear to be clustered together to form shapes. In almost all cases, the constituent stars are actually far apart, at very different distances from Earth The names of the 88 constellations, along with items they represent : Andromeda Antlia : The Air Pump Apus : Bird of Paradise Aquarius : Water Carrier Aquila : The Eagle Ara : The Altar Aries : The Ram Auriga : The Charioteer Boötes : The Herdsman Caelum : The Chisel Camelopardalis : The Giraffe Cancer : The Crab Canes Venatici : Hunting Dogs Canis Major : The Greater Dog Canis Minor : The Lesser Dog Capricornus : The Goat / Fish Carina : The Keel Cassiopeia Centaurus : The Centaur Cepheus Cetus :The Whale Chamaeleon Circinus : The Drafting Compass Columba : The Dove Coma Berenices : Berenice's Hair Corona Australis : Southern Crown Corona Borealis : Northern Crown Corvus : The Crow Crater : The Goblet Crux : Southern Cross Cygnus : The Swan Delphinus : The Dolphin Dorado : The Goldfish Draco : The Dragon Equuleus : The Little Horse Eridanus : The River Fornax : The Furnace Gemini : The Twins Grus : The Crane Hercules Horologium : The Pendulum Clock Hydra : The Water Serpent Hydrus : The Lesser Water Snake Indus : The Indian Lacerta : The Lizard Leo : The Lion Leo Minor : The Lesser Lion Lepus : The Hare Libra : The Scales Lupus : The Wolf (there are other names for some which are based on the particular star or stars contained in the constellation).

The names of the constellations are also pronounced differently both in the scientific world and by amateurs. There is no set way to pronounce the names, and astronomers can understand each other so it is not a problem. The IAU also created a three-letter abbreviation of constellation names, which is often simply a shortened version of the constellation name.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
