Its story
6 Orionis is a white A-type star settled at the edges of Orion, far from the Hunter's great beacons but breathing the same winter sky. At 228 light-years away, it offers the crisp, cool light of young stars that still have billions of years ahead of them. To find it you must trace the less celebrated outline of the constellation, where Orion leans toward the raised arm and the eye drifts away from the belt everyone seeks first.
