Its story
75 Orionis is a white A-type star 225 light-years away in the most celebrated winter constellation: Orion, the Hunter. It lies far from the Belt and from the great jewels like Betelgeuse or Rigel, yet it belongs to the same cosmic backdrop. Its light crossed the entire Industrial Revolution before stumbling into modern telescopes.
