Orion's Belt is made up of 3 main stars.
From left to right as seen from Earth :-
"Orion's Belt" is basically a group of three stars; these stars don't physically form a group, and they are at different distances from us. The stars are at a distance of approximately 736, 1340, and 915 light-years, respectively.
Orion Pictures ended in 1998.
Orion
between 520-1400 light years away (4919579845742016km-13245022661613120KM away) between 520-1400 light years away (4919579845742016km-13245022661613120KM away)
The first manned Orion mission is expected to be some time in 2015; though there will be several more unmanned test flights before then.
Orion got its name from Artemies. Orion was a great hunter. Atemies brother, Apollo, tricked his sister Artemies and Artemies killed Orion. After she found out it was a trick from her brother, she felt bad for him that she put him up in the sky with his nameanother version is that Orion was fighting with a scorpion but got killed by the scorpion. so Artemies put both of them into the sky. But she put them up into the sky in the opposit side of the sky.The Orion constellation got its name due to the fact that it resembled the character Orion from mythology. Orion was a great hunter and the constellation resembles a hunter.
The Kuiper Belt is a belt of Asteroids outside Pluto's orbit. Orion is a famous star constellation.

The constellation Orion contains at least 4 galaxies.M78 - NGC 2068M43 - De Mairan's NebulaM42 - Orion nebulaIC 434 - Horsehead Nebulaand many other open clusters.Note: These galaxies lie far, far beyond the group of stars delineating the perimeter of the Orion Constellation. By "contain" we just mean we can see these galaxies out the Orion window.
Approx 1,344 light years.
The thing is, when we look at Orion we are only looking at a projection. We can see the directions of the stars but we can't see how far away they are. Therefore some of the stars in Orion are close, other are very far away, so it's impossible to say they are grouped together in a volume of space.
No. Rigel is in Orion is is pretty far from Polaris.
Orion is the hunter constellation found in the winter sky, followed by his dogs, Canus Major and far behind is Canus minor. Orion is holding up a shield and has a weapon, as he is trying to find the rabbit. He never does, because the rabbit is under Orion's feet. (Don't ask why the dogs cant get the rabbit)
Orion is a constellation, not a galaxy. The stars in it appear to form a pattern but they are not a unit and they are all completely different distances away. So there is no definitive distance that you can say Orion is away from us. You can only talk about the distance of individual stars that are in it.
Because they're too far away
Seat/shoulder belts. That is about it as far as safety is concerned.
There are thousands of stars in Orion. The three in the belt are Alnilam, Alnitak and Mintaka. The brightest star is Rigel and near that is Saiph. These two stars are in the legs of Orion. On the other side of the belt are the reddish star, Betelgeuse and not far away, Bellatrix. These lie in or near Orion's shoulder. His sword is made up of the stars Pi 1-Pi6.
Betelgeuse is a red supergiant in the constellation Orion. It is approximately 640 light years from us.
