Stargazing in Scotland - Astronomy & Constellations - Ep.6
Learn all about astronomy and the night sky in our Stargazing Scotland video series. In this episode, we explore everything to know about constellations. Find out what a constellation is, the names of the networks of stars, and easy to spot constellations.
You may have heard of the Big Dipper constellation (or the Plough as it's known here in Scotland), but can you find it in the night sky? With help from our expert astronomer, learn how to recognise star constellations and chart the night sky.
Did you know, the earliest record of a constellation goes back to prehistoric times? Historically, constellations were used for navigation, as well as symbols of mythology and spiritual beliefs.
