it's very difficult to make constellation drawings in space.

• They have to move with the earth
• but be synchronized so they remain lined up with the stars in the constellation.
• They have to be far enough away so that they appeared lined up with the constellation even when two people at opposite sides of the earth are viewing.
• Yet they have to be big enough that people can easily see there is a line there.

• And they need to be out of the way of any known satellites, space craft, Space stations, or debris.

The last thing you want to see is some chinese space craft hitting Orion below the belt and warping your constellation drawing into "Oh My Balls".

I think they must use colored string. They probably use knots that won't slip off.
