Constellations

The sky is divided into 88 different regions called constellations (one constellation actually consists of two different regions, so some will say it's 89 regions). Each constellation contains an assortment of stars, galaxies, nebulae, etc, all of which are part of that one constellation, and no other. Also in the constellations, some stars make up a figure representing that constellation - this is called an asterism.
