ESS Planetarium Myth Project
1. Choose a constellation or group of constellations, moon, sun, planets, Milky Way that is visible in the sky.
You can even make up a new constellation by connecting the dots a different way. Pages 886-887 in your book
have star charts for each season. You can use these to get ideas for your project.
2. Write a myth about how your object got placed in the sky. This must be your own original work. Do not use
a myth that I told your or that you might find on the internet. Be creative and tell us a good story!
3. The myth must be typed, double-spaced, 12 point font, 1 inch margins, and minimum length 1 page.
4. You must submit your myth to Turnitin.com by 7:00 am on December 4, 2015. No late papers will be
