You need to speak to Bill & Sally Fletcher - they produce the best photographs of the constellations I've ever seen. I bought a copy of Capricornus of my fiancee's birthday. You can find their website at http://www.scienceandart.com/0gallery.htm
Whatever you do, please ask before you use anyone's photographs... I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you're doing a school project but it's only polite to get their permission first :) (Besides, using photographs without permission is illegal! :o)

Did u know the Capricorn sign is the Chinese Ox, or the western Scorpionis the same as the China tail-star sign?

I read a book called "Maya Life Myth Art", it had the 260 day calendar, star charts and time based on the 20 day signs.
I forget who wrote it. :unsure:
