they go to space and see them Oh there are many different ways that they use to study the stars... mainly with telescopes though. And of course now&then they'll send send people into space to study planets first hand. They'll collect dust, and rock, and take lots of pictures to bring back to earth with them. =) It's all realy interesting actualy, what people will do in order to further education for their children and future generations! Hope I was able to help
To modern astronomers, a constellation is a defined region of the celestial sphere that contains a specific group of stars. Constellations are used as a way to organize the night sky and locate objects for observation and study. They are not physical groupings of stars, but rather arbitrary patterns that help astronomers navigate the sky.
The night sky is mapped using celestial coordinate systems such as the equatorial coordinate system, which uses declination and right ascension to pinpoint the location of celestial objects. Astronomers use tools like star charts, telescopes, and computer software to create detailed maps of the night sky, allowing them to navigate and identify objects in space. These maps help astronomers locate and study stars, planets, galaxies, and other celestial bodies with accuracy.
Astronomers study the movement of stars in the night sky using telescopes and specialized instruments to track their positions and trajectories over time. By observing and analyzing the patterns of star movements, astronomers can gain insights into the dynamics of the universe and the behavior of celestial objects.
Either Astronomers OR Astrologers - depending on what they are studying.
A constellation is a group of stars that form a recognizable pattern in the sky as seen from Earth. These patterns have been given names based on their shapes and are used by astronomers and stargazers as a way to navigate the night sky. There are 88 officially recognized constellations.
Many people consider the first astronomers to be the first humans that ever looked up at the night sky and wondered what was really up there. So cavemen were probably the first astronomers.

The primary source of light that enables astronomers to see Jupiter through a telescope is sunlight reflecting off the planet's surface and atmosphere. Jupiter also emits its own light, known as intrinsic radiation, which contributes to its visibility in the night sky.
The telescope helps astronomers the most when studying the sky.
At the time, using a telescope to observe the night sky was a new and controversial idea. Many astronomers were skeptical of Galileo's findings and methods, preferring to rely on traditional instruments and observations. Additionally, telescopes were expensive and not widely available, which may have limited their adoption among fellow astronomers.
no, they divide the sky into constellations
you look in the sky on a clear night
It is not visible in the night sky, but you can look through a telescope. Depends on what kind.

Currently there are estimated 400 billion stars according to astronomers, althrugh not all are visible in the night sky.
Unless you have a extremely powerful telescope, a galaxy and a star look almost the same.
The Milky Way was named when the early astronomers looked up at the night sky and saw a milky band of dim stars going across the sky.
