constellations
I konw that Tolkien mentions several constellations in LoTR, but what i was wondering is if there are stories behind any of them. Even such an off hand reference as the Cats of Queen Beruthiel has a story behind it, so what about Menelvagor and other star groups. Are there any recorded stories about such heros?
