No, because a constellation means a group of stars or more than 1 . " "A star object" is only a single object so it means only 1 .

So can I ask one more question?
I want to mix up these two phrases:
"I've known him for decades"
"I feel as if ~"
Will it be like "I feel as if I knew him for decades"??

Oh really? I think "as if I had~" and "as if I were~" are only the correct forms.
