In the Extragalactic Atlas, we provide the constellation lines along with the stars for night-sky context. They too are fixed on the 1 Mpc sphere and have a single color (unlike the Milky Way Atlas). For a full description of these lines and their meaning, please refer to “Constellation Connectivity Lines” in the Milky Way Atlas.
