SPACE SQUAD SCOOP! ✨💫🪐 The ancient constellations were first catalogued by the Greek astronomer Claudius Ptolemy in the 2nd century CE, while most of the constellations created between the 16th and 19th centuries were named by sailors after scientific instruments and New World animals. This is why most ancient constellations in the northern hemisphere come from European mythology, such as Perseus, Pegasus, Andromeda, and Hercules. Meanwhile, the newer constellations in the southern hemisphere have names such as Vela (ship sail), Carina (ship keel), Pyxis (mariner's compass) and Tucana (toucan).
