2.5 Gigapixel Photo of the Orion Constellation

The Orion Constellation is quite a sight to see but when rendered in a 2.5 gigapixel photo it just takes your breath away. This new fully navigable image of the constellation took 5 years to capture, 500 hours to edit, and 42 hours to process.

The "Horsehead Nebula" is neat in a larger amateur  24" to 36" Dobsonian telescope.  Much stuff to be seen in Orion.
