    My favorite animals are owls and wolves. So, when I found that there were no constellations of owls (there should be, though, in my opinion), I chose the constellation of the wolf, or Lupus. This constellation also reminds me of Professor Lupin, who was also my favorite Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher in the Harry Potter books. I think that J. K. Rowling intended that to be, since Lupus means Wolf in Latin. Lupus can be found between the constellations of Centaurus and Scorpius. The Lupus constellation is home to some remains of a supernova, some globular clusters, and the Retina Nebula. It also contains two stars that have planets.…

    The Orion constellation is something that has always appealed to my imagination. The constellation is visible with the naked eye and can be seen by everyone in the world, wherever they are. Ancient cultures mention it in their writings or even in the paintings in their caves, so the constellation has been up there in the night sky for a little infinity, as a silent watcher over the human race while we live and die at a speed that the heavens only experience as mere seconds. Orion's symbol is that of a hunter and it contains three bright stars that people refer to as the hunter's belt, or Orion's belt. When we go over to some finer instruments than the human eye, one can find Orion's Nebula south to Orion's belt.…

    The role of the Delphic oracle in Greek mythology was very important due to the myth it followed of Apollo. Apollo, the god of Prophecy known as an oracular god who was the only god who could prophesy the will of Zeus and influence mythology so greatly, influenced the Delphic oracles importance. The Greek societies believed Apollo was born on the island of Delos, and still a boy when he travelled to the island of Delphi to succeed in his first task of achievement, which was killing the python, that lived there. The temple had originally belonged to the oracle of the earth goddess Gaia; a python, which Apollo killed that guarded the site.
