Why do constellations form the shape of people or animals?

Some stars are very close to us, and some are far away from us, with different distances. The arrangement of stars presents various shapes. It was an accident. People in ancient times did not have such recreational activities as they do now, but the night sky at that time was beautiful and clean. On the way back and forth, farmers and herdsmen associate the shapes of the protagonists, animals and utensils in the story with the arrangement of twinkling stars in the sky, and name the stars accordingly, which is the origin of the constellation.

Let's think about it here. Why do constellations look beautiful? The stars are flickering, orange and yellow, constantly flashing, so beautiful. Besides, they are arranged beautifully. But this is not depicted with a ruler and compasses, so it is a bit irregular. Even the three stars in Orion are irregular, and the star in the upper right corner is a little dark and tilted upward.

The curves of the Big Dipper, the Northern Corona and Scorpio, and the size and angle of Cassiopeia stars all maintain the beauty of balance and symmetry, and the more you look at them, the more amazing they are.
