[quote:Anonymous Coward 30346871:MV8yMDg3Mzg5XzM1MTQ1MzQyXzFGMEJBRThD] Cetus is a constellation. Its name refers to Cetus, a [b]sea monster[/b] in Greek mythology, although it is often called '[b]the whale[/b]' today. Cetus is located in the region of the sky that contains other water-related constellations such as Aquarius, Pisces, and Eridanus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetus Tau Ceti is a star in the constellation Cetus that is spectrally similar to the Sun, although it has only about 78% of the Sun's mass. At a distance of just under 12 light-years from the Solar System, it is a relatively nearby star. Tau Ceti is metal-deficient and so is thought to be less likely to host rocky planets. Observations have detected more than ten times as much dust surrounding Tau Ceti as is present in the Solar System. The star appears stable, with little stellar variation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tau_Ceti :jkgtuuoiu8o: I highly doubt anyone on this planet will ever see or be on another planet ever.. In ancient Greek, the word ketos (Ancient Greek: , plural cetea Ancient Greek: - Latinized as cetus - denotes a large fish, a whale, a shark, or a sea monster. The sea monsters slain by Perseus and Heracles were each referred to as a cetus by ancient sources. The term cetacean originates from cetus. In Greek art, cetea were depicted as serpentine fish. The name of the mythological figure Ceto is derived from ketos. The name of the constellation Cetus also derives from this word. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetus_%28mythology%29 [/quote]
