Gemini, where the jellyfish is located, is a wonderful constellation. Unlike many others it actually looks like what it is supposed to be - twins. They walk happily arm in arm and once you have found them in the sky, it’s hard to unsee them. Unfortunately one of the twins has the jellyfish stuck to their trailing leg.
