Fun fact, Orion's... "sword" contains a nebula that is often very faintly visible with the naked eye. Now that depends greatly on your eye sight as well as how dark the sky is near you. However a pair of binoculars can make it a lot easier to see despite your eyes and how much light humanity feels like pumping into the sky. So in the winter (or summer for you people in the southern hemisphere) check it out. It also helps not to look directly at it. Our eyes see faint objects better in our peripheral vision. Understandable since the light had to travel a thousand light years!

If you look close enough into the night sky, you can actually see his Amazon-review next to the stars.

I need to go back to bed because that should not have been that funny.
