Where can you find constellation Orion?
Orion is in between Canis the Dog with the brightest star in the sky, and Taurus. The easiest location is when setting because they line up on the west horizon in a straight line. Taurus to the west looks like a sling-shot Y.
What constellation is Saturn in?
Constellations are formed from the fixed stars. Saturn is a planet, not a fixed star - the word planet means wanderer. However, the planets travel through the constellations of the zodiac. Saturn is currently in the constellation Leo the Lion and will be for another year or so, until it moves into Virgo, the Harvest Maiden and will remain there for many years, since 1) Saturn moves so slowly and 2) Virgo is such a large constellation. +++ It should be remembered that the constellations are merely concocted images useful as "sky-marks" resulting from the chance relative positions of stars as seen from Earth. When we say a planet in our Solar System is "in" or "passing through" any particular constellation, it is simply moving across the line of sight. Physically, it is no-where near the constellation's own stars.

How do you know a year has passed using a constellation?
Well, you could spot one star in a constellation ... one that you can easily findand recognize again. Then line it up with a tree or a corner of the roof of yourhouse, jab a stick in the ground where you're standing, and look at the time onyour watch.The next time that star is in the same place, at the same time by the clock,while you stand in the same place, will be a year from tonight.(Tomorrow night, it'll get there 4 minutes too early.)
What are the names of the seven stars that are found in a constellation and never fall?
The Pleiades star Cluster is also known as the "Seven Sisters" and it's found in the constellation Taurus (it's the "heart of the bull"). True stars never fall. Stars are gigantic balls of hot hydrogen and helium. The sun is a star. The other stars are vast distances away. The closest star other than the sun is over twenty five trillion (25,000,000,000,000) miles away. The so-called "falling stars" are actually meteors, very small bits of rock, usually only dust mites, which enter the earth's atmosphere at immense speeds, and burn up. When seen from about 30 degrees north latitude, there are several constellations that "circumpolar" - they revolve around the North Star and never set. Two very distinctive constellations are Ursa Major (also known, variously, as the Big Dipper, the Great bear, and Charles' Wain) which contains seven bright stars and Cassiopeia (a.k.a. The Chair) which contains six bright stars. Ursa Major and Cassiopeia are extremely useful constellations; each is bright and distinctive, and right between them is the North Star, Polaris. In fact, if you draw a line between the two stars at the bowl of the Big Dipper, it points right toward Polaris. Polaris itself is nothing special; not all that bright, and pretty ordinary as stars go. But in the Northern hemisphere, Polaris is almost exactly north.
