Orion was a constellation located on the celestial equator.[1]
History[]
The name of this constellation was used by the Black family to christen one of their members Orion Black, the husband of Walburga and the father of Sirius Black.[2] During their Astronomy practical O.W.L. Examination in 1996, Hogwarts students had to fill a star chart with the precise positions of the stars of Orion.[3]
