Serpens Constellation
In Greek mythology, Serpens constellation represents a giant snake held by the healer Asclepius, represented by Ophiuchus constellation. Asclepius is usually depicted holding the top half of the snake in his left hand and the tail in his right hand.
Serpens constellation dates back to Babylonian times. The Babylonians had two snake constellations. One represented a hybrid of a dragon, lion and bird and roughly corresponded to the constellation we know as Hydra, the water snake. The other Babylonian constellation, called Bašmu, was depicted as a horned serpent, and loosely corresponded to the constellation Ὄφις, created by the Greek astronomer Eudoxus of Cnidus in the 4th century BC, on which Ptolemy’s Serpens constellation was based.

Ascleipus
Asclepius was the son of the god Apollo who was said to be able to bring people back to life with his healing powers. In one of the stories, he did away with a snake and saw it be brought back to life by a herb that another snake placed on it. It was said that Asclepius later used the same technique.
Asclepius was raised by Chiron, the wise centaur, associated with Centaurus constellation, who taught him the art of healing. In one of the myths, Asclepius was given the blood of the Gorgon Medusa by the goddess Athene. The Gorgon’s blood from the veins on her left side was poison, but the blood from the veins on the right side was said to be able to bring people back to life.

Unukalhai – α Serpentis (Alpha Serpentis)
The brightest star in the constellation, Unukalhai (Alpha Serpentis), represents the serpent’s neck, and Alya (Theta Serpentis) marks the tip of the snake’s tail. It has an apparent magnitude of 2.623 and is approximately 74 light years distant from the Sun. It is a double star located in the serpent’s head, Serpens Caput. The star’s traditional name, Unukalhai, is derived from the Arabic ‘Unuq al-Ħayyah, which means “the serpent’s neck.” The star is also sometimes known as Cor Serpentis, which is Latin for “the heart of the serpent.”
