Reflections
  • Will there ever be a new zodiac constellation?
  • Constellations help us detect movement in the
    universe
  • If one constellation is in the north and the
    other is in the south, then only that hemisphere
    on earth can see that particular constellation

Conclusion
  • I thought that constellations was a very
    interesting topic.
  • Astronomers have been studying constellations
    for over the past millenniums. I wonder what
    would happen if one of a constellations star
    were to blow up into a black hole?
