∙ 10y agoThey divide the night sky into "constellations".
The astronomical night sky is assumed to be a sphere of unknown large radius, above our heads, with its centre at the centre of the Earth, called the Celestial Sphere.
Positions on the Earth's surface are expressed as latitude and longitude, while on the Celestial Sphere positions are measured by the equivalent measurements which are "declination" and "right ascension".
The 'celestial equator' of the Celestial Sphere (zero declination) lies above the equator (zero latitude).
The Celestial Sphere is divided into areas, called constellations.
So, the simple answer is "constellations".
