Transbulundum Filimanjunks

User:Rursus/Lynx-1 A Transbulundum Filimanjunks is a terrible, an immense and a humungous something that makes us feel like little ants (or what we imagine that a little ant would feel, had they any sense of greatness, or so) before the vast, the superlative, the ueber-extreme phantastiqual vastness of beingness, so to say.

Ape stars

Embarassing "new depictions":

• File:Auriga constellation map visualization.PNG, acceptable
• File:Bootes constellation map visualization.PNG, just so creepy!
• File:Camelopardalis constellation map visualization.PNG, acute angles – unnatural
• File:Capricornus constellation map visualization.PNG, depicted as a buck, Capricornus never was a buck, it always was a goat-fish from the earliest Mesopotamian time
• File:Hercules constellation map visualization.PNG, turned upside down, acute angles – unnatural, ridiculous
• File:Leo constellation map visualization.PNG, the lion turned into a horse...
• File:Pegasus constellation map visualization.PNG, while the horse is turned into a featureless mess
• File:Perseus constellation map visualization.PNG, just wrong
• File:Virgo constellation map visualization.PNG, just so creepy!

OK, OK, H.A. Rey tried to teach stars to children, but that doesn't mean we shall repeat his childrens jokes as were they factual and having any cultural importance whatsoever.
