Finding Patterns: In ancient Greece, Orion was a mighty but not particularly popular hunter, but his constellation shines brightly—a familiar shape to people around the world. Why did the goddess Artemis immortalize him in the sky? Also screening is the epilogue fulldome film of the One Sky Project.
