Cassiopeia (in English "Cassiopeia")  is one of the 88 constellations of the sky.

 

She is absolutely fascinating and inspiring.

 

W-shaped, this ''chain'' of four magnificently luminous points has many surprises in store for those who take a closer look.

 

Did you know that one of its constituent stars is 42 times larger than the Sun?

Or, did you know that another rotates on itself at more than 300 km/s?

So quickly that it loses its substance! 

 

Another is a binary star, which means that they are two stars that orbit around a common center of gravity, a bit like dancing or spinning around. 


Decidedly, the starry sky is  breathtaking!
