No. The three stars in orion's belt aren't even connected. They just
happen to appear close together and in a line, from where we are.
No, Jupiter did not pass through Orion's Belt in 1961. Jupiter's movement in the sky is independent of the position of Orion's Belt, as they are both parts of different constellations and have different orbits in the night sky.
No, the starter motor is normally on the outside of an engine connected by a belt.
No, Orion is not part of the Ursa Minor constellation. Orion is a distinct constellation known for its recognizable pattern of stars including the "belt" of three bright stars. Ursa Minor, on the other hand, contains the North Star Polaris and is commonly known as the Little Bear or Little Dipper constellation.
A constellation is basically a general direction in the sky - you see a group of relatively bright stars, for example the Southern Cross in the shape of a cross, but any other stars in that direction are also said to be part of the Southern Cross - trillions of stars, most of them not visible with the naked eye.
Generally, stars are named with a Greek letter designating the relative brightness followed by the name of the constellation. "Alpha" and "Beta" are (generally) the two brightest stars. So the brightest star in the constellation Scorpio is "Alpha Scorpius". Most bright stars also have Arabic names; Alpha Scorpius is better known as Antares. This pattern doesn't ALWAYS hold; for example, the red giant star Betelgeuse is Alpha Orionis, while Rigel is Beta Orionis. But Rigel is brighter than Betelgeuse! The answer is that Betelgeuse is a somewhat-variable star, and when the stars were formally catalogued, was brighter than Rigel. Betelgeuse has since dimmed a little, and is now less bright that Rigel. Some astronomers use Betelgeuse's variability as a sign that it is nearing the end of its life, and will "soon" explode as a supernova. Of course, "soon" to an astronomer means "within the next 10,000 years or so".
No, Orion's Belt is part of the constellation Orion. The Little Dipper is part of the constellation Ursa Minor, also known as the Little Bear. They are two different groupings of stars in the night sky.
No, Orion's Belt is not part of the Big Dipper. In the night sky, Orion's Belt is a prominent line of three stars in the constellation Orion, while the Big Dipper is a distinct group of seven stars in the constellation Ursa Major.
Rigel
No.
Probably, you can. :)
Orions belt?
The guys orions belt is inside the girls galaxy
No. It is a part of the constellation of Orion. The Southern Cross is separate to that.
The Big Dipper can be used to locate other constellations in the night sky. By following the curve of the handle, you can "arc to Arcturus" in the constellation Bootes. Additionally, you can use the two pointer stars at the end of the Big Dipper's bowl to find Polaris in the constellation Ursa Minor (Little Dipper).
Orion's Belt is not a physical object but rather a prominent asterism in the constellation Orion. The stars that make up Orion's Belt are estimated to be around 10 million years old.
The Big Dipper is an example of an asterism, which is a pattern of stars that is not an officially recognized constellation. It is part of the Ursa Major constellation and is one of the most well-known star patterns in the night sky.
No - the moon travels along the same path that the sun and planets travel - the ecliptic. Orion's belt is too far below the ecliptic.
