Behind Orion’s outline
Move sideways with the wheel and watch the outline change.
Start at the Sun and recognise Orion. Turn the wheel to shift your viewpoint by tens of light years. The same lines still connect the same stars; only your position changes. Return to the Sun in settings to compare.
Why explore it?
A constellation’s outline depends on our viewpoint. Its stars lie at different distances, and the catalogue’s distant estimates remain uncertain.
