Difference between Aries (constellation) and Declination

Aries (constellation) vs. Declination

Aries is one of the constellations of the zodiac. In astronomy, declination (abbreviated dec; symbol δ) is one of the two angles that locate a point on the celestial sphere in the equatorial coordinate system, the other being hour angle.
