Cassiopeia

Cassiopeia is a prominent constellation in the northern sky, easily recognizable by its distinctive "W" or "M" shape formed by five bright stars. Named after a queen from Greek mythology, it appears near the Big Dipper and the North Star, making it useful for navigation. The constellation contains several interesting deep-sky objects, such as star clusters and galaxies, and is visible year-round in northern latitudes. Cassiopeia's recognizable pattern and cultural significance make it a notable feature for stargazers and astronomers alike.
