For as long as we have been looking up towards the skies, we have been telling stories about what we have found there.  Some of these stars have served as markers of the seasons, helping ancient civilisations keep a track on their harvests, and navigating across the globe. Stars have been connected by invisible lines in constellations, patterns that we have mapped across the millennia.  Depicting heroes and villains, animals and household items, each and every one has stories to tell.
