Evolution of 88 constellations:

The division of modern international constellations can be traced back to Babylon, which had the earliest constellation name 5000 years ago.

In 13 century BC, there were 12 constellations on the ecliptic, which were called "Zodiac", meaning 12 house during the solar year. Later, it gradually expanded and named more constellations.

In the 2nd century AD, Ptolemy, an ancient Greek astronomer, compiled a table containing 48 constellations on the basis of summarizing previous knowledge. 16 ~/kloc-the geographical discovery of Europe in the 0/7th century also supplemented some constellations in the southern sky. At this time, the concept of constellation is only a combination of some bright stars visible to the naked eye, and there is no clear boundary between constellation and constellation.

With the development of astronomical telescope technology, more and more dark stars have been discovered and deeply studied, but it is difficult to know which constellation they belong to and how to label and address them.

1928, in order to meet the needs of astronomical research, the General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union held in Leiden, the Netherlands, clearly divided the whole sky into 88 constellation areas, divided along the right latitude and right longitude of the celestial equator coordinate system, kept the traditional constellation names, specified their scientific names in Latin, and clearly formed their abbreviation symbols with three capital letters, which were used uniformly all over the world.

Later, the Chinese Astronomical Society confirmed the Chinese translation of the constellation and became the official academic name.
