Brilliant Orion stands proudly in the south this evening. A big rectangle of bright stars outlines his body, while a short line of three stars in the middle represents his belt. Two supergiants stand at opposite corners of the rectangle: orange Betelgeuse at the upper left, and blue-white Rigel at the lower right.
