I'm not sure about Menelvagor, but I do know that there is a bit of a story behind The Sickle of the Valar (what we would call the Big Dipper). Varda put it up there as a warning to Morgoth that he would eventually get his butt kicked by the Valar! She also put up the constellations using the dew of Telperion.
