Question: what are the 5 major constellations?
Answer: The Big Dipper/Ursa Major, 'The Great Bear' This may be 'cheating' a little bit because the Big Dipper is not technically a constellation, but part of a constellation known as Ursa Major. ...  The Little Dipper/Ursa Minor, 'The Little Bear' ...  Orion, 'The Hunter' ...  Taurus, 'The Bull' ...  Gemini, 'The Twins'
