How many stars are in the Constellation Perseus?

lots, since it's in the northern milky way.



this idiotic question again...sheesh...How many stars are in the Constellation Perseus?The number of stars in Preseus is: "6", but you will get some debate on what stars are included, you said stars in Perseus, answer 6.How many stars are in the Constellation Perseus?16.How many stars are in the Constellation Perseus?As I have to explain every time somebody asks "How many stars are in xxxxx?" this question has no answer. You need to specify how faint the stars must be. If you say magnitude 1, there are no stars. If you say magnitude 6, there are about a couple of dozen stars. If you specify _all_ stars, there are trillions, because Perseus is in a rich part of the Milky way and contains many star clusters and a number of galaxies. Please explain to your teacher that they need to define this question more precisely.
