Time for another [apod] image. This one is of Alnitak, Alnilam, Mintaka. This is essentially a picture of the belt of Orion, so for all of you who have seen it, this is what it looks like up close and personal. At the bottom is fantastic Orion nebula which encompasses a horsehead, which you can probably easily locate. Absolutely breath taking isn't it!
