There are 88 constellations in the night sky, 48 are
regarded as classical in that they were known to the astronomers living
thousands of years ago. The other 40 are called modern. These were added during
the 1500s, 1600s and 1700s.Many are in the southern hemisphere which were
unknown to Europeans.
People tend to use the Greek myths and legends with the
classical constellations; the modern ones have no myths or legends attached to
them.
Most of the star names used are Arabic
