How can I find the constellation perseus using other constellations as a guide?Whats the best way to find the constellation perseus?During the Northern summer, look to the Northeast for the easily recognizable "W" asterism of Cassiopeia. If it's late enough, you should see several bright stars directly below the W; these are within the constellation of Perseus.
If you're trying to find the radiant of the Perseids meteor shower, it's not crucial that you look in exactly the right spot. The radiant is simply the point which, if you traced all the meteor streaks backward, would be their "source." All you need to do is lay down, let your eyes adjust, and look up.Whats the best way to find the constellation perseus?http://www.stellarium.org/

Enjoy!Whats the best way to find the constellation perseus?The constellation Perseus is found during the winter in the Northern Hemisphere, and during the summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Look at the websites below to see star maps showing where Perseus is to be found below Cassiopeia and to the left of Andromeda. Perseus contains the well known variable star Algol. It is an eclipsing binary star that has a period of 2.87 days. It dims its brightness by 1.3 magnitudes during the 10 hour long eclipse

In my dreams i saw a constellation of a fish eating a crocodile, and then they came alive, whats the meaning?
it was a weird dream, i remember it vividly, I've never remembered a dream before like this, before the constellation appeared the moon became larger and then it moved around the sky, then the stars lit up amazingly bright and the constellation appeared and then it went immediately afterwards and it was sunrise .
i need to know what this dream means, please someone out their knowsIn my dreams i saw a constellation of a fish eating a crocodile, and then they came alive, whats the meaning?The moon closer to the earth makes the tide grows. Both are aquatic creatures, affected by water. The moon is whimsical moving around the sky (creates an environment against the strong), benefiting the weakest creature... the fish eats the crocodile. The appearance of these constellations is bright and sudden... then, comes the sun; you're the one who benefits before the moon is gone.
You'll be in a favorable situation in connection with your superiors, in the same field (both affected by water). You must be pending... to obtain more, because it'll come fast. Don't worry, you'll see it easily.

What group of people named the constellation ARIES?
What ethnic group to be more specific?What group of people named the constellation ARIES?The Greeks - it was named after the god of war - Aries - the reason is because its main starting star is Mars (Roman God of War) which starts as the Greco Roman collaboration before the founding of Constantinopal.What group of people named the constellation ARIES?the birth of astrology goes way back in time.. I think it was the Persians or Babylonians. I'm not sure thoughWhat group of people named the constellation ARIES?not just because the word is greek doesn't mean the greeks named it, pluto is a roman word for the ninth planet from the moon and some little girl in like czechoslovakia came up with it or something , does it really matter who named it , or that it is named what it is.What group of people named the constellation ARIES?
probably the Greeks; the name is Greek anyway. Perhaps they translated it from Persian...
BTW: Aries is a ram, %26amp; it has nothing to do with Ares.

How rare will this Mars in retrograde be this autumn and which constellation will it be in?
anything unique about this?
please explain.
also, how often does this occur for Mars?
is it same time or same length of time?
please explain.How rare will this Mars in retrograde be this autumn and which constellation will it be in?don't worry about such things because horoscopes are a load of rubbishHow rare will this Mars in retrograde be this autumn and which constellation will it be in?Mars will be in Cancer throughout most of the Autumn this year.
Starting in July, around the 20th, you'll see this fabulous line-up across the early night sky: Saturn in the East, Mercury, Venus, ending with Mars in the West, near Orion's upper right "hand". That will be a lovely sight!
Next, in August, Orion's right foot and right hand line up to point to Mars in Taurus. By September, Mars is creeping back to the East right into Gemini and Orion will have already set in the West.
By October, Mars has moved into Cancer, where it will stay until December before moving into Leo.
The positions of the planets are different all the time. I'm sure there are computers or calculators somewhere that can tell you when to expect this particular configuration to happen again, but I dont' know myself how to determine this.
I use this website, below, when I want to know what's in the night sky on any particular date or time, using my own location as "home" (e.g. Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, UK versus Raleigh, NC, USA). Just set up a login and password, plonk in your current location, and click on Whole Sky Chart. It will tell you what's in the night sky on any chosen date, any chosen time, above your location.
Hope this helps!

How the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?
%26lt;QUOTE%26gt;how the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?%26lt;/QUOTE%26gt;
Our minds are always looking for patterns, IMAGINARY lines and so on.
Go outside and look at the stars visible from where you live. Then look at the charts for that position in the sky. SEE FOR YOURSELF whether there are any lines in the sky connecting the stars.How the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?The only way stars in any constellation are "connected" is in the brains of humans looking at them. In reality they are spread over vastly different distances in space. The only thing they share is that they are in roughly the same direction as seen from Earth.How the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?
Like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co鈥?/a>How the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?Imagine u are looking at mountain peaks way way far away and they look like a W.
As u move around them, u realize they are not connected at all and some are way farther than others.

they are bright in that region but if the coal stack interstellar cloud was not blocking out two other bright ones it would not look like a cross at allHow the stars in the Southern Cross are connected to form the constellation?They aren't.
