gravitationally bound constellations
Posted: Tue Feb 10, 2009 11:16 am
I was going through the list of scientific principles here at G&S and came across the Pleiades's and Orion section were it stated that they are gravitationally bound constellations. I found a blurp on Wikipedia stating that Pleiades was gravitationally, but could find nothing directly relating to Orion. It did state that the Orion Nebula was gravitationally bound, but evidently this is not the same thing as the constellation of Orion. Any ideas?
