Gemini is Latin for "twins," and it is one of the few constellations that actually looks like its namesake. Gemini is one of the Zodiac constellations and one of the 48 constellations described by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy.
The constellation is named after the twins Castor and Pollux in Greek mythology. The two brightest stars — also named after Castor and Pollux — represent the heads of the twins, while fainter stars outline the two bodies. Pollux and orange-giant star (35 light-years) is the brighter of the twins. Castor is a sextuplet star system (50 light-years). Another noteworthy star is Mekbuda (ζ Gem), a super-giant star with a radius that is about 220,000 times the size of the Sun.
