There are a few objects in Orion. The main stars are Betelgeuse, Rigel, Bellatrix, Saiph and the belt contains Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka. There is also the Orion Nebula (Messier 42) which houses the Trapezium Cluster. Near the cluster is Barnards loop and the flame nebula (close to Alnitak). There is also two more nebula M43 and M78. Many of the stars are members of the greater Orion OB1 Association which has many hot blue stars and supergiants.

Polaris is a very important star, and Vega is very bright, but in fact the three brightest stars in the northern sky are (in order) Sirius, Canopus, and Arcturus.
