		The total area of all constellations is the total area of the sky, which is 4π steradians, or 4π × (180/π)

		The stars in a constellation or asterism rarely have any astrophysical relationship to each other; they just happen to appear close together in the sky as viewed from Earth and typically lie many light years apart in space.
