Default Constellation Talk

Does anyone here that is an observer actually know the Greek mythology
about what they look at or even care? I don't much. Maybe I should. Just
what was the state of mind when they projected these images in space and
time? To most, these are just names of obvious patterns of stars but when
you actually see the whole constellation with a picture, one really has to
wonder what was going on.
