A constellation is a group of stars that forms a shape and has been given a name. Different constellations can be seen from the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. From the equator all the constellations can be seen. The Big Dipper and Cassiopeia are Northern Hemisphere constellations, while the Great Square, Pegasus, and the Southern Cross are seen from the Southern Hemisphere. The Big Dipper points to Polaris, which is also called the North Star because it is always positioned above the northernmost part of Earth. People in the Northern Hemisphere can use the North Star to help them find their way, and people in the Southern Hemisphere can use the Southern Cross. Learning to recognize the constellations is a fun way to spend time outdoors.
