   Why does Orion shift from predawn to evening sky?

   • There’s nothing unusual about Orion’s shift from predawn to evening sky. The constellation is simply following the westward shift of all the stars, caused by Earth’s orbit around the sun. As we orbit our star, our night sky shifts through an ever-changing panorama of the Milky Way galaxy.
