  • (C) Patterns or groups of stars in the sky
  • (D) Patterns or groups of satellites in the sky
A constellation is a group of stars that, from the Earth perspective, combine to make a distinct shape. In the past, these shapes were given names that were derived from mythology, animals, or common objects. Currently, the term is sometimes used by astronomers to refer to specific regions of the sky, but the traditional and most widely accepted definition is the grouping of stars. All stars, in the end, are part of one of the 88 defined constellation areas. As the study of astronomy progressed and telescopes became more modern, it became possible to identify stars that are outside the bright patterns of the traditional constellations—stars that are not part of the original pictures of the stars. On a clear night, you can see some of these "hidden" stars just by looking up. Using binoculars, even more stars are visible, and with a telescope, even more can be seen. All the stars you see, in the end, are part of one unique group: the stars of our own galaxy, the Milky Way.
