Introduction:

Welcome to our virtual science fair project. Over the past few months we have been researching the formation of stars and how they apply to constellations. Our focus is constellations and how they are created. During our research, we discovered that constellations are a group of stars that have many stories connected to them. To understand constellations, we first need to look at how stars are formed. Once we understand star formation, we will discuss the most commonly known constellations and the legends behind them.
