    I have chosen the constellation Orion. I have loved this giant hunter in our skies since I was a child of about 6 or 7 years old.

It was a cold night in the middle of October, I was leaving the hospital with my father that night,asking about my new brother and hoping he would be able to come home soon.

Thus, the

The constellation of Orion has an interesting back story based on the hunter of the same namesake in greek mythology

    “There’s a constellation among the stars, one that we can’t see from the Ark, it’s called Orion’s belt. In Greek mythology, there’s a story of Orion, who was a well-known hunter, in fact, he proclaimed himself to be the greatest hunter in the world.

    • 3 Pages

    Rigel is a blue supergiant, binary star system, brightest star in the Orion constellation and it is also the 7th brightest star overall. It's 10 million years old and it is relatively a young star, compared to our Sun, which is 4,6 billion years old. It also is 74 times the radius of our Sun. So large, in fact, that if Rigel was replaced with our Sun, it would stretch to the orbit of Mercury. That is the result of swelling up, because it has depleted its hydrogen supply. Rigel is around 800 light
