Stars are classified by size, color, brightness, and temperature. The definition of a constellation is A group of stars forming a picture in space Example: if there are a group of stars and you think it looks like a lion you can imagine in your head a lion made of stars in the sky.

3. Neptune and mars
Neptune is a gas giant because its atmosphere is made of helium hydrogen and methane. Neptune is 346 degrees F. Neptune is billion miles away from the sun. Neptune’s diameter is 30,599 miles. Neptune has 13 moons and 165 earth years is 1 year on Neptune. Mars is about 70 degrees F. mars diameter is 4,212 miles. Mars is miles away from the sun. mars is a rocky and sandy planet. Mars is about only half the diameter of earth. Mars has no rings and has 2 moons
