APOD 3.1

A new quarter, and the start of a new constellation chart. Timely enough, the stars of Orion's belt: Alnitak, Alnilam, Mintaka are pictured here, in all their unstable blue super-giant glory. Also beneath Alnitak, one can see the star that makes the sword attached to Orion's belt. Looking just here One can see multiple nebulae, including the Horse-Head Nebula, the Flame Nebula, and of course, the Orion Nebula.
