Do astronomers sleep during the day?

If they have been observing at night, yes - rather like shift workers. However most astronomers no longer observe directly but use cameras that are much more sensitive than the human eye to obtain their telescope data. This allows telescopes to be automated and the data save so that astronomers can analyse it during the day without having to visit the telescope. These astronomers work normal hours and only a few are needed to man the telescopes (a task which may also be done remotely).

How do modern astronomers define a constellation?

Modern astronomers define a constellation as a specific area of the celestial sphere that is bounded by defined coordinates, encompassing a group of stars that may or may not be physically related. There are 88 officially recognized constellations, each with distinct boundaries, which help astronomers and navigators locate celestial objects. Unlike historical interpretations that often emphasized star patterns, the modern definition focuses on the area itself and its use in mapping the sky.
