Orion Lost

Product Information

FIRST IMPRESSION, BEST IMPRESSION (+1) - The first impression sets the tone, you know? So when the first impression is Like That, it's obvious you're in for a good time. Mintaka is a complex multiple star, comprising a mag. 6.8 star 52 arcseconds to the north of the primary and a far fainter 14th magnitude star in between. Don't let goodreads fool you with the "read three times" or whatever, I've read this like 300 times and I will never stop Synopsis: After a catastrophic Unknown Event leaves the colony ship Orion stranded deep in space, it's up to thirteen-year-old Beth and her friends to navigate through treacherous and uncharted territory and reach safety. Mercury’s the fastest. Closest to the Sun, it reaches speeds of 200,000km an hour, as it completes it orbit in just 88 days.

Now you may have had a problem where you are trying to think of an idea for a story. But you can't get it straight in your head until you start to write it down. Then you are not ready to write it down because you haven't quite got it straight in your head. Use mag. 4.4 Pi 2 (π 2) Orionis to home in on this faint galaxy, which rests just 18 arcminutes east of the star and shines at mag. 15.0. This galaxy has a couple of mag. 10.0 stars nearby that help you locate it. Just south of Pi 2 Orionis is UGC 3180, another mag. 15.0 galaxy, this time all alone in the night sky. Close to mag. 1.9 Alnitak (Zeta (ζ) Orionis) is mag. 4.0 Sigma (σ) Orionis, which appears as a stunning multiple star system through small to medium telescopes. There are four splittable stars, the brightest of which is another double – though this one is too tight to resolve in amateur instruments. Hartmann noticed the Calcium-K line at 393.34 nanometres didn’t show the same periodicity as the Mintakan system and from this he deduced there must be a calcium cloud between us and the star.

M78 would be the showcase nebula of the constellation were it not for the Orion Nebula. It possesses two stars immersed in nebulosity, shines at mag. 8.0 and from Earth looks like a typical white-sheeted ghost. Look out for nearby NGC 2071: it is smaller than its neighbour but shines at mag. 8.0. I read this whole book in one day and I don't regret a thing. I'm thinking this might just be my new favorite book.

Night Mayor Franklefink has vanished from the Transylvanian Express - and it's up to you to solve the case! Part of the Solve Your Own Mystery seri... But other than those two points I really enjoyed this book and I loved it to bits. I flew through it. There are twists and turns. Secrets uncovered. Friendship being made. Tough decisions. And if you are looking for an exciting space adventure, read this one. Beth chooses to help the small Videshi ship but the Orion Jumps before she can find out the larger Videshi ships intentions. Do you think the ‘mother’ ship would have harmed the Orion? Do you think it was trying to say thank you? This barred face-on spiral galaxy has a stated magnitude range of mag. 14.2 to mag. 16.4 and is a challenging object. See if you can detect it with a 14-inch Newtonian at 200x magnification as a faint roundish smudge of light. It lies 140 million lightyears away. RIVALRY DEVELOPMENT: (5/5). Yeah I do think it would have been cool to see more on the far end of the rivalry (the "getting along" end) but the way it's set up makes the most sense for the story AND what we did get was really good anyway.Most of the story centers around her and 5 other characters, which means that the others have to be strong supporting characters too. Thankfully, they are. Each is distinctive in their talents and personalities, and as a whole the group have some great scenes. If there was a word for chemistry but for negative interactions that's how I would describe it. Like, it's immensely entertaining to watch the group argue, which sounds bad but it's an integral part of the plot and I promise it's fun 😭 The stars, from east to west, are known by their Arabic names of Alnitak (‘belt’), Alnilam (‘string of pearls’), and Mintaka (‘girdle’). Mag. 3.5 Meissa (Lambda (λ) Orionis) is found in a neglected group of stars known as Collinder 69 or the Lambda Orionis Association. Meissa makes a triangle with mag. 4.4 Pi 1 (π¹) Orionis and mag 4.1 Pi 2 (π 2) Orionis. Meissa and the cluster it resides in are thought to be 1,100 lightyears away and certainly worth looking at with larger binoculars. The colony ship Orion is four months out of Earth when catastrophe strikes – leaving the ship and everyone on board stranded in deep space.
