    Okay, a bit more on constellations and star names...

    1. Which constellation's figure was a symbol of astronomers in ancient
    Egypt?

    2. In the constellation Delphinus, what's the story behind the names for
    Alpha Delphini - Sualocin, and Beta Delphini - Rotanev?

    3. Which constellation is the sixth most extensive constellation in the
    sky? Hint: What did this constellation have to do with Phaethon and
    Helios?

    ...Bob...
