The small bear constellation is the invention of people who watched the stars and said that a certain grouping looked like a man or an animal. Ursa major and minor are also called the big and little dippers. Your could take a photograph of the night sky and make up your own shapes. The stars in any supposed arrangement has no origin in reality. Those stars when viewed from a different point in space would have a very different pattern. They are not planar with one another. Some are stars and some points of light are really several stars or even a galaxy. Most are a very far distance from one another. We only see them in two dimensions. Space is all about three dimensions. The worthless tedium of Astrology, that so many fools believe in, is based on these imagined patterns.
