ORION

Orion is a constellation located on the celestial equator east of Taurus. It is a rectangular configuration with three stars in line near its centre. It is represented on pictorial charts as the figure of Orion, the hunter in Greek mythology, standing with uplifted club. Three bright stars (Orion's Belt) represent his belt and three fainter stars aligned south of the belt represent his sword.
