Constellation Quizzes


Check to see how well you know the material for a quiz.  Some of the maps may contain items that you have not yet gone over, so don't let that confuse you.  Items such as asterisms, clusters, constellations and stars are included - basically everything you need to know for the real constellation quiz.  Since the way lines are drawn in is rather random, don't rely upon them to show you where the objects are.  You can in fact test your ability to find the objects without using the lines.  If you dare....

Show the location of a star by clicking exactly on the star.  For a constellation or an asterism, click near where the "center" would be.  After you click, you will be shown where the object is and whether you were right or wrong in your selection.  Good luck!
