It’s Orion Time
November 17, 2007 at 22:12 pm | Leave a Comment
I’m in an Orion Mood
It’s getting to be that time again—when the constellation Orion starts making its annual appearance. It’s one of the coolest-looking constellations of the year, and for me it means one thing: the Orion Nebula is back!
To celebrate Orion’s arrival back in the pre-midnight skies, I’ve made a little video about it. It features some clips from the Space Telescope Science Institute (all used by permission), some of Mark’s nice, floaty space music (also used by permission), along with yours truly telling the story!
Click on the image below and let’s go to Orion!
