Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern,
but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the
same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no
such thing as a constellation's distance from us.
There are many recorded versions of Orion's death. Some Greek myths state that his death was indeed at the hands of Scorpius, who was sent by an angry Mother Earth after Orion had threatened to kill every beast on Earth. Others say that Artemis accidentally hit him with a discus and caused his death. A third theory is that Apollo tricked Artemis into hitting Orion with an arrow, killing him instantly.

It's a summer constellation. Remember it this way: Orion is a winter constellation and in the myth, Orion and the Scorpion are enemies, so Zeus keeps them apart by putting them on the opposite sides of the sky. Comment: Probably most people reading this live in the Northern Hemisphere. However, in the Southern Hemisphere Scorpius is a winter constellation and Orion is seen in the summer.
Perhaps second only to the Big Dipper in Ursa Major, the constellation of Orion is one of the most recognizable patterns of stars in the northern sky. Orion, the hunter, stands by the river Eridanus and is accompanied by his faithful dogs, Canis Major and Canis Minor. Together they hunt various celestial animals, includingLepus, the rabbit, and Taurus, the bull. According to Greek mythology, Orion was in love with Merope, one of the Seven Sisters who form the Pleiades, but Merope would have nothing to do with him. Orion's tragic life ended when he stepped on Scorpius, the scorpion. The gods felt sorry for him, so they put him and his dogs in the sky as constellations. They also put all of the animals he hunted up there near him. Scorpius, however, was placed on the opposite side of the sky so Orion would never be hurt by it again.
