On of my favorite things to do on a warm summer night is just chill on a blanket and gaze up into the night sky and pretend that I know all the constellations (there are 88 of them!).

Requirement 5 of the Tiger Scout Elective Adventure: Sky is the Limit, asks you to draw and name your own constellation, and to share it with your den. First, i think it would be good to know what a constellation is.

Constellation: A group of stars forming a recognizable pattern that is traditionally named after its apparent form or identified with a mythological figure.

Below is the constellation that I created for my night sky... it might look familiar to you! Have fun creating your own constellations with your Tiger Scouts.
