Taurus. Computer artwork of the constellation of Taurus,the Bull,with a red line showing its shape in the sky. The grey areas are the star clouds of the Milky Way. Taurus is the second of the twelve constellations or signs of the Zodiac. The most distinctive feature of Taurus is the v- shape formed by the Hyades star cluster at the base of the constellation's "horns". Taurus is a very ancient constellation,possibly deriving from bull worship in early Mediterranean civilisations. In Greek mythology,Taurus was the bull which carried Europa off,only to be revealed as Zeus in disguise | |
