I have never seen the constellation of Orion in such a way that you can recognise Betelgeuze by its colour.

It was blazing orange that night, very noticeable to the naked eye. A group of friends and I sat around gazing skyward, in awe at the celestial light show. Several good meteors flashed that night, too — all of which managed to evade my camera....

Yeah... Light pollution is getting worse everywhere. 😔 I hope someday you can travel to a dark-sky place.... I like to dream about crossing the Pacific Ocean by sailboat. Imagine all those night watches over a thousand miles from any land.
