Gamer ◊ 2025-03-01 15:48	That's what I used to think, but it's actually named after the constellation. Though since the Taunus is named after a geographical region, I initially thought it was named for the Taurus mountains in Anatolia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taurus_Mountains -- Last edit: 2025-03-01 15:56:02
