    What is the dimmest constellation in the sky?

    Question #51848. Asked by the_peacemaker. (Oct 20 04 9:36 PM)

    		I remember reading somewhere once that Mensa is the dimmest constellation. (It does not have a star above the fifth magnitude).

    But, if you are wondering about the dimmest constellation in the Zodiac, that would be Cancer followed by Capricorn.
