"What is a constellation" - A visible group of stars, all in the same direction, that seem (to us) to form some picture."Are all the stars in the constellation the same distance" - No, they just happen to be in the same direction."Why do groups of stars continue to stay together" - They are extremely far away. They do move, but the distances are enormous, and it takes a while (say, a few thousands of years in the usual case) before we notice a movement."What is a constellation" - A visible group of stars, all in the same direction, that seem (to us) to form some picture."Are all the stars in the constellation the same distance" - No, they just happen to be in the same direction."Why do groups of stars continue to stay together" - They are extremely far away.

Does the constellation include only the stars connected by the imaginary lines that create a shape?

A constellation is defined as a certain "area" in the sky - similar to the lines that divide countries on a continent. All the stars in that general direction are part of the constellation - millions of them, or billions or trillions, if you include stars that are faint enough.


What is the temperature of Equuleus?

Equuleus is a very small constellation. Constellations are apparent pictures in the sky, caused by arrangement of stars. A constellation does not have a "temperature". The stars themselves wold be hot as you approach them, like any stars. The area of space around the constellation would be near absolute zero, as all of interstellar space is.
