Constellations are patterns of stars that have been seen, named, and recorded by humans for thousands of years. Different cultures have their own mythological stories and interpretations for the constellations. They help navigate the night sky and have been used for celestial navigation and storytelling.
Constellations are used to identify groups of stars in the sky. It is easier to refer to the 88 constellations than to remember the location of each star. It's like dividing a city into neighborhoods, instead of houses.
"Constellations" translates to "constellations" in French.
Constellations do not have a direct effect on human lives. However, they do serve as points of reference for navigation, timekeeping, and cultural storytelling. Some people also find inspiration and wonder in the beauty of the night sky with its constellations.
The two groups of constellations are northern constellations and southern constellations. Northern constellations are visible primarily from the Northern Hemisphere, while southern constellations are visible primarily from the Southern Hemisphere.

Constellations come from human imagination. Distance stars look as if they are in a fixed pattern and early humans saw these patterns in terms of shapes - mostly mythical. Many of the constellations require a great deal of imagination.

People do not put stars into the constellations, unless you mean extend and include the stars you wish when you create a constellation. As telescopes unveiled more stars they had to be named by a decision of which constellation it was closer to.

We humans are good at recognizing patterns. In fact, we humans are SO good at seeing patterns, sometimes we see patterns where there is no pattern. The ancient people, looking up into the night sky, saw patterns of lights in the sky that they thought looked like people, or animals, or common objects. We call these patterns of stars "constellations". Every society has constellations, but since people are all different, different civilizations see different constellations. The most common constellations are the ones observed by the ancient Greeks and Romans, and we learn these constellations like Orion the Hunter and the Big Dipper as children. The stars themselves are real, but the patterns are entirely in our own minds.
