What is your favorite constellation?

I like the Pleiades, Orion, (It helps me find Taurus) and Cassiopeia (to find the North star)What is your favorite constellation?I like Canis Major and Minor, and also Orion, not just because it's so easy to view with a telescope, but especially the nebulae around it and its accessibility during the winter months when I have more time.



And please, keep the comments about inappropriate viewing time and schedule to a minimum, it's not even asked.What is your favorite constellation?
I find it amusing that when people name out their favorite star or constellation, it almost always corresponds to what is visible in the evening sky for the current time of year that the question was posed.



Of course Orion and the others are favorites right now because they are currently visible this time of year.



My own favorite constellation is Sagittarius because there are enough bright deep sky objects to keep one busy observing for hours -- and that is just in that one constellation.



Btw, the Pleiades are NOT a constellation, but a bright open star cluster in the western confines of Taurus.What is your favorite constellation?idk if it's a smaller part of another constellation or what it is, but i always see 3 stars in a row. i looked it up and I'm not sure if it's Orion.. but it's 3 stars in a row.What is your favorite constellation?
