A "constellation", according to the casual stargazer, is a group of stars in one
part of the sky, that can be recognized by the pattern they form. According to
the serious astronomer, a constellation is a precisely defined area in the sky, that
includes the few stars that make the pattern, plus anything and everything else
that can be seen in that part of the sky with the eye or any kind of instruments.
Either way you define it, a constellation consists of many separate, distinct, and
unrelated astronomical objects, with different shapes, sizes, distances from us,
speeds in various directions, and colors.
So it's quite meaningless to talk about the color of a constellation. It makes about
as much sense as talking about the color of the socks worn by the person who
watched last year's Superbowl on TV.
