Here is one idea to be explored: There's a constellation of Phoenix, another Aquila, and for the fish there's Pisces and I think some more. Then there's a Dragon constellation and a Fly constellation, but not a Dragonfly constellation. No jellyfish constellation, but there's Medusa, which is the name given to some jellyfish.
I'm not saying there's any relationship, but for the sake of stimulating ideas, there it is. :)
There’s also meteor showers associated with these constellations.
The Phoenix constellation stretches from roughly −39° to −57° declination, and from 23.5h to 2.5h of right ascension. This means it is generally invisible to anyone living north of the 40th parallel in the Northern hemisphere…
Phoenix is associated with the minor Phoenicids meteor shower of December 5th.
Coincidentally, the 447 plane went down around the equator in June.Meteor Showers: June Aquilids, Epsilon Aquilids
English name: Eagle
… A pretty constellation at the celestial equator….
Meteor showers are closely associated with Comets, when a comet breaks up, a swarm of particles eventually becomes scattered out over its entire orbit. If this orbit intersects that of the earth, a meteor shower will be observed.
But if a larger object had been orbiting with this meteor shower for a number of years wouldn’t it have been spotted in previous years?
There’s the Piscids, associated with Pisces.
The Piscids shower is an annual show viewed from August 12 through October 7.
The Gamma Piscids shower takes place around the end of August to some time mid-October.
