StarsThe legend of Orion

Orion was a famous hunter who was very strong and brave.He began to tell that there was not an animal in the world that could kill him.He did not notice a scorpion. The scorpion stung Orion’s ankle and Orion died.Because of this, these two groups os stars are never seen together in the sky at the same time. We can see Orion in winter and the scorpion in the summer.
