In modern astronomy, a constellation is a specific area of the celestial sphere as defined by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). These areas mostly had their origins in Western-traditional asterisms from which the constellations take their names. There are 88 officially recognized constellations, covering the entire sky.
Thus, any given point in a celestial coordinate system can unambiguously be assigned to a constellation. It is usual in astronomy to give the constellation in which a given object is found along with its coordinates in order to convey a rough idea in which part of the sky it is located.
The origin of the word constellation seems to come from the Late Latin term "cōnstellātiō," which can be translated as "set of stars", but came into use in English during the 14th century. A more modern astronomical sense of the term is as a recognisable pattern of stars whose appearance is identified with mythological characters or creatures, or associated earthbound animals or objects.

This video is from the program "Great Planes" and gives the complete history of the Lockheed Constellation series aircraft.
A legendary Lockheed L-1049F Super Constellation, HB-RSC, visited Airport Bern-Belp in Switzerland. Engine start-up with flames and smoke. Flame out while turning on the runway. Close-up take off and great engine sound. The "Super Connie" is still considered the most beautiful aircraft ever built. The elegant dolphin-shaped fuselage and the triple tail design are a feast for the eyes. The distinctive sound of the four powerful 18-cylinder radial engines (Wright R-3350) make the heart of any plane enthusiast beat faster. The screechy brakes might put a smile on the faces of many people. Enjoy the close-up view of the spectacular Super Constellation; a great piece of aviation history or in other words a flying legend!

I set you right back in your place
And put you right back where you came
And let you think about your life
And let you realize what you're like
Oh, it's something that he didn't know
Did you ever want to be the only star in the constellation?
Did you ever want to be the furthest from this situation?
Yeah, the constellation
In these times of different moods
They come from all those interludes
Like the girl you thought you'd need
And like the man you'd wish you'd be
Oh, it's something that he didn't know
You better watch, better watch
What you do
You better watch, better watch
