Question

What stars make up the Orion constellation? How far are they from Earth?

Answer 1

At this time of year, a prominent constellation is Orion (figure 1). Orion hosts some of the brightest stars in Earth's sky. Are they near or far? Table 1 tells us Orion's stars lie at distances ranging from 243 to 1360 light years.

Answer 2

Here is the answer...!!!!

Orion's seven brightest stars form a distinctive hourglass-shaped asterism, or pattern, in the night sky. Four stars—Rigel, Betelgeuse, Bellatrix and Saiph—form a large roughly rectangular shape, in the centre of which lie the three stars of Orion's Belt—Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka.

Orion's stars lie at distances ranging from 243 to 1360 light years.
