Is there a special feature found in Aquila?
A few interesting deep-sky objects in the constellation Aquila are: Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, one of the most massive structures in the Known Universe, is a dense conglomeration of galaxies near Aquila. NGC 6751 is a planetary nebula in the constellation Aquila that looks like the iris of a human eye.
What constellation does that star Sirius belong to?
== == Sirius is the Dog Star, the brightest star (after the sun) in the sky.
In which constellation will you find the bright star?
There are several bright stars.
Planets move around the Ecliptic, covering 13 constellations or so. Note that planets look like stars, but are not currently considered stars. Also note that some of the planets look brighter (to us) than any real star.
Other than planets, the brightest stars are the Sun (also changes through the constellations of the Ecliptic), Sirius (Canis Major), Canopus (Carina), and Toliman (Centaurus).
Degenerate matter is extremely dense matter with characteristics governed by quantum mechanics. One of the notable traits is that temperature and pressure are independent of one another. Two forms of matter known to exist are electron degenerate matter, which comprises white dwarfs, and neutron degenerate matter, which comprises neutron stars.
What are the right ascension and declination of the star alderbaran in the constellation Taurus?
According to Wikipedia: Right ascension 04h 35m 55.239s, declination +16° 30′ 33.49″. The data corresponds to the epoch 2000.0.
What is the shape of the Libra constellation?
The Libra constellation does not have a distinct shape like some other constellations. It is typically depicted as a set of scales, representing balance and justice. However, the arrangement of stars within the constellation may not strongly resemble this imagery to the naked eye.
Do France and north America see the same constallations in the winter and summer skies?

What telescope was Draco dragon found?

Do you capitalize the word constellation?
No, "constellation" is not usually capitalized. However, if it is at the beginning of a sentence or part of the proper name of a specific constellation like Orion or Ursa Major, then it should be capitalized.
Apparent magnitude is the brightness as viewed from Earth
Absolute magnitude is the brightness as viewed from the same distance - 32 light years.
Therefore a star that is twice as bright but further away could have the same apparent magnitude but a different absolute magnitude.
What characteristic do stars in a constellation or asterism share?
There is normally no similarity between stars in a constellation or asterism other than the direction they are in relation to Earth. They are normally a collection of dimmer near by stars and brighter further away stars.
An example of this is the constellation Centaurus. AlphaCentauri is the closest star system to earth. It has 3 stars, Proxima Centauri which is about 4.2 light years and Alpha Centauri A and B that are 4.3 light years away.
On the other side Beta Centauri or Hadar is a bright star 350 light years away.
There are however examples where some or most of the stars are connected.
Take the asterism the big dipper or plough in the constellation Ursa Major. Merek (Beta Ursae Majoris), Phecda (Gamma Ursae Majoris), Megrez (Delta Ursae Majoris), Alioth (Epsilon Ursae Majoris) and Mizar (Zeta Ursae Majoris) all seem to be about the same distance from Earth (between 78 and 84 light years) and all seem to be moving in the same direction. They are known as the Ursa Major Moving Group.
Only Dubhe (Alpha Ursae Majoris) and Alkaid (Eta Ursae Majoris) do not seem to be connected.
How far away is the little dipper?
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 did Wilt Chamberlain get the nickname The Big Dipper?
because he love deeping his vegetables in a ranch cream
Is Orion located near a planet?
The planets move around the sun so the planet that is pointed most toward Orion's belt will usually be the closest. Orion's belt is actually three stars that are very far away from each other (just in the same direction) so if you want to be especially precise you have to pick just one of them to ask about.
What constellation do New Zealanders often refer to as The Pot?
The constellation known as Orion (The Hunter) or variously Te Kakau, Te Kakau A Maui, or Te Huihui O Te Kakau in Maori.
Why are constellations important?

Many uses.

An example of a unicellular organism is a bacteria, such as Escherichia coli. These organisms consist of just one cell that carries out all the functions necessary for their survival.
How do you describe the constellation ursa?
Ursa Minor (Latin: "Smaller Bear", contrasting with Ursa Major), also known as the Little Bear, is a constellation in the northern sky
A grouping of stars that is part of a ursa major?
We use the word "asterism" for a grouping of stars that isn't one of the 88 "official" constellations recognized by the International Astronomical Union, the IAU. The most famous asterism is the central part of Ursa Major; we call it the "big dipper".

What is the color and surface temperature of bootes constellation?
The constellation Bootes ... as well as all of the other 'constellations' ... is a drawing of an imaginary figure in the sky, constructed with stars at several points in the drawing, like a 'connect-the-dots' picture. The brightest star in the Bootes drawing is called "Arcturus". After the sun, Arcturus is the third brightest star in our sky. It's an orange giant located roughly 36.7 light-years from us. Its surface temperature is estimated at between 4,500 to 6,000 degrees Celsius.
