What makes constellations?

Constellations are named after a Greek or Roman God. They were made to help sailors find their way. Now they are used to help more people find their way. In this world such help is very useful.

Binary Star Map

"Scientists said yesterday (February 22, 2021) that they’ve now created a 3D plot of more than a million pairs of binary stars, that is, double stars orbiting a common center of gravity. Astronomer Kareem El-Badry of UC Berkeley created the new plot, which wildly improves upon previous data that revealed just 200 double-star pairs."
