This means that the exact stars and animals the constellations are associated with may not always coincide between how they are seen from Earth and off planet. An example of this is Taurus and the Piedes. From Earth, the M45 Pleyeidian star cluster is not a constellation as it is only part of Taurus. Yet for interstellar societies, Piodeses is in itself a constellation, but based on the political arrangement around it, and not because of any physical location within a larger constellation, as it is understood on Earth. In short, for people on Earth, a constellation is a group of physical stars which are visually close together and which are associated with an animal or object. But for interstellar cultures and societies, a constellation is more of a political term, although some physical star location element is still present in the mix.
