That is why most of the constellations no longer resemble what they are supposed to—FIXED STAR, is the term for such stars, that make up constellations—as the years, centuries pass, the stars actually move out of place, SLOWLY, BUT SURELY. I have read, that in about ten thousand years or so from now, this will be the case with the Big Dipper—the cup will be so much wider by then, that the constellation will no longer resemble a dipper. So Charlie Brown is right, in Panel 6.

And the big dipper is full of milk from the milky way. As the stars move and the big dipper comes apart, the milk will spill. Still, there’s no use crying about it.
