The constellations can be a bit vague to see. Those ancients had fanciful ideas! Skywalk allows you to overlay or lose these graphics by slight movement and zooming in/out. The following two screen grabs are a minuscule sideways movement causing the Orion graphic to fade and Taurus to come out. I've chosen these two as it links Orion (that you now know) with Taurus (as discussed above). You will see Aldebaran is actually the link star between the two constellations. Viz the star on the bulls right nostril is also the star on Orions club .... with which he is wellying poor old Taurus! Adeosll is a satellite passing underneath Aldebaran.
