See Explanation.  Clicking on the picture will download

This picture is just so beautiful. It shows the constellation Orion through the woods. The woods act like a frame for the constellation. Also one can see the two super red giants gleaming in the sky. These two red super giants are Alpha Orionis, the great star Betelgeuse and Alpha  Tauri, which is known as Aldebaran. Meaning that Alpha Tauri is in the constellation Taurus and Betelgeuse is in the constellation Orion. You can also see Orion's belt in this picture. also do you see that pink fuzzy stuff in the middle of the picture. That is a stellar nursery, where millions of stars are made, but only a few will make it to the main sequence.
