Orion appears different due to several factors, including its position in the sky as Earth orbits the Sun, which changes our perspective throughout the year. Additionally, variations in atmospheric conditions and light pollution can affect its visibility and the clarity of its stars. The brightness and color of Orion's stars, like Betelgeuse and Rigel, also contribute to its distinct appearance. Finally, the constellation's orientation varies depending on the observer's geographical location.

How was the constellation Orion formed?

It wasn't formed as such. Orion, like all constellations, is a group of individual stars that have no relation to each other, but from our perspective they appear to make a noticeable pattern in the sky. They are different sizes, different distances away and so on, but just happen to seem to form a particular pattern. So constellations are in effect formed through the imagination of people. We look up at all the stars in the sky and through our own imagination they look like things, so we name that group as a constellation. Orion and the other constellations were created in that way. In reality, every star in Orion was individually formed. They were not formed together as a unit at the same time. If you were in a completely different part of the galaxy, the stars of Orion would look completely different in terms of a pattern, and some may not look connected in any way. So were you halfway between two of the stars of Orion, they would be on completely opposite sides of the sky to you, so would not be part of the same patterns that you would see.

The stars that make up the Orion constellation are not actually all at the same distance from Earth. Some are much further away than others, so it would look very different if you could view it from another angle. The Orion Nebula which is located in the Sword of Orion is estimated to be about 24 light years across, so that gives you an idea of the distances involved.
