You can't really say how far a constellation is. A constellation is just a group of stars, and even though the stars in a constellation look close together in the sky, in reality they might be very far from each other. Some of the stars could be relatively close to us, and some much farther away.

Really, the only question you can answer is how far from earth is each individual star in Perseus is.

How far away is the constellation perseus from earth?

Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern, but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no such thing as a constellation's distance from us.


How many light years away is Perseus?

Perseus is a constellation ... a collection of individual stars that appear to form a pattern in the sky because of their positions. The stars of a constellation have no connection or association with each other. Each one has its own individual color, temperature, size, and distance from our solar system.


What is the distance to nearest black hole from Perseus?

Please bear in mind that a constellation (such as Perseus) is basically a direction in the sky. It really doesn't make much sense to talk about the distance from such a direction (which is a direction from our point of view), to some object. If you mean the asterism (the group of stars), the main stars of Perseus - or any other constellation - happen to be more or less in the same direction, but the distance from these stars to Earth vary quite a lot.
