Constellations from Mythology to the Modern Day
Humans have studied the night sky since the dawn of time. This talk covers some of the constellation mythological stories from around the world, how they were named and some of the superstitions surrounding astronomical events. Mary then goes on to talk about how we view constellations in the modern day and some of the interesting things that reside within them.
Mary McIntyre is an Oxfordshire based amateur astronomer and astrophotographer who has had a life-long interest in Astronomy.
