My favorite constellation is the Cetus or 'whale' because I think it looks more like a frying pan than a whale. The Cetus is a constellation made up of 88 stars and the brightest star is called Deneb Kaitos. The Cetus is very close to the other zodiac constellations such as Aries, Pisces and Aquarius.

The woman looked up into the night sky, thanking God she had not washed her dishes that morning. As she watched the stars twinkle and shine she noticed a collection of 88 stars that looked a lot like the frypan she held in her hand, and so, she decided to call these stars The Frypan Stars. And she knew they would always be watching over
