Heres a story of it

Taurus is one of the many animals hunted by Orion, the Hunter.



The Greeks saw Taurus as Zeus in disguise. The story went that Zeus fell in love with Europa, the daughter of Agenor who was King of Phoenica. On one day while she was playing by the waters edge, she caught sight of a majestic white bull grazing amongst her fathers heard. When she approached the bull, it knelt down and let get on it's back. Once she was on, it sprang to it's feet and took off to the sea in Crete where Zeus made her his mistress.



It also represents the white bull that sired the famous Minotaur with the wife of King Minos of Crete. This bull was sent to Minos as a sign that he was the rightful heir to the throne. However, Minos did not sacrifice the bull to Poseidon like he was supposed to, so the ever-vengeful sea god caused his queen, Pasipha毛, to fall in love with it. Later, in another myth, Theseus of Athens goes to Crete and slays the dreadful Minotaur, which was reported to be a man with a bull's head that could breathe fire.



The Egyptians saw the constellation instead as their god Osiris while the Chinese caled it alternatively the "White Tiger" or the "Great BridgeWhat is your favorite star constellation?

The Orion. He is easy to find with his belt, and looks like an acrobat when he is upside down.
i like Orion the hunter because when i was little my mom pointed out Orion's belt to me and my little brother and said "see those stars? wherever you are in life, you can look at that belt, and that middle star is me, and you two kids are the one on either side of it. that way, we are always together whenever you look into the sky."

and i thought it was really cute. and whenever i look at it, i think about that. especially because i live far away from my mother.What is your favorite star constellation?
Orions Belt
Orion the hunter. I'm a little bias on that one though because the horse head nebula is in his belt. An amazing sight in astronomy.
Big Dipper. Sorry, I don't know it's proper name.
scorpio
Cygnus %26amp; Lyra. They are in the summer sky together. They are easy to identify. Lyra contains the very bright star Vega. And Cygnus looks like a cross with the brigh star Deneb at the top. Lyra contains the planatery nebula M57 that looks like a smoke ring.



Cygnus is a swan. Lyra is a hand harp.
I like Cassiopeia, because I think it's a great name and I can always find it since it looks like a W.
