[QUOTE="Dawg Pics, post: 614195, member: 26505"] #86/365 The Big Dipper is not a constellation but an [I][COLOR=#0000CD]asterism[/COLOR][/I] in the constellation of Ursa Major (The Great Bear). Its handle makes up the tail of the bear. I am guessing everybody knows and recognizes the Big Dipper but not all will know it isn't a constellation.
