Constellations?

[Molly Clark <mcclark@ALDUS.NORTHNET.ORG>]

Help,

I have a group of fifth graders coming in one hour to finish their solar
system research and I have reached a point of desparation.  I have been
unable to locate information on the constellations of the zodiac.  My print
resources only touch on them briefly.  I found a web site using AskJeeves
that gave some information on some of the constellations, but we are still
missing information, including how far from earth the constellation is
located, and how it got it's common name.  Does anyone know of a good
comprehensive website?  I have tried Groliers online, as well as my print
encyclopedias.

BTW, this teacher has given assignments that have no answers in the past -
I'm hoping that's not the case this time.

Thanks in advance!
