Sky Orion
is
one
of
the
most
recognizable
constellations
in
the
night

mythological
hunter,

visible
from
both
hemispheres
and
has
been
revered
by
various
cultures
throughout
history. In

was
a
skilled
hunter
and
warrior
who
boasted
that
he
could
kill
any
animal
on
Earth.
This
angered
the
goddess
Gaia,
who
sent
a
giant
scorpion
to
kill
him.
Some
legends
say
that

Hopi

also
been
drawn
to

as
it
contains
some
of
the
brightest
and
most
massive
stars
in

sword,
is
a
stellar
nursery
where
new
stars
are
being
born.
