Look what we spotted on our Pench AstroTrip!

By day we were chasing tigers and by night we were chasing stars, constellations and planets in the night sky.

The Orion constellation is one of the most recognizable patterns in the night sky, visible from almost every part of Earth. Straddling the celestial equator, it’s rich in bright stars, massive supergiants, and stellar nurseries, making it one of the most important regions for observational astronomy.

At the top corner of Orion lies Betelgeuse (Alpha Orionis) — a red supergiant located about 550 light-years away. With a spectral type of M1–M2 Ia-ab, it is nearing the end of its life. Betelgeuse is enormous, with a radius roughly 700–1,000 times that of the Sun, and shines with a luminosity up to 100,000 times greater. It’s also a semi-regular variable star, meaning its brightness changes noticeably over time.

Opposite it is Rigel (Beta Orionis), the brightest star in Orion and one of the most luminous stars visible to the naked eye. Rigel is a blue supergiant (B8 Ia) located about 860 light-years away. It has a surface temperature of around 12,000 K and shines nearly 120,000 times brighter than the Sun. Rigel is actually part of a multiple star system, though its companions are faint compared to the primary star.

The three stars forming Orion’s Belt are equally fascinating:

Alnitak (Zeta Orionis) — about 1,260 light-years away, a massive O-type supergiant (O9.5 Iab). It’s part of a triple star system and emits intense ultraviolet radiation.

Alnilam (Epsilon Orionis) — roughly 2,000 light-years distant, a blue supergiant (B0 Ia) and the most luminous of the belt stars, radiating nearly 800,000 times the Sun’s energy.

Mintaka (Delta Orionis) — about 1,200 light-years away, another multiple star system, with a primary O-type star (O9.5 II). It lies almost exactly on the celestial equator.

Below the belt lies the famous Orion Nebula (M42), a stellar nursery located about 1,344 light-years from Earth. This is one of the closest regions of active star formation, where new stars are born from clouds of gas and dust — visible even to the naked eye under dark skies.

Another notable star is Bellatrix (Gamma Orionis), a blue giant (B2 III) about 250 light-years away, shining around 9,000 times brighter than the Sun.

Most people go to Spiti for the landscapes.
But magic also begins after sunset.

At 12,000+ ft, far away from city lights, Spiti gives you something rare — a sky so dark, so clear, you can see the Milky Way with your naked eyes.

No filters. No edits. Just the universe… as it is.

🌌 Watch the Milky Way rise over the mountains
đź”­ Observe planets & deep-sky objects through powerful telescopes
📸 Learn astrophotography under pristine dark skies
🏔️ Experience Spiti’s culture, monasteries & raw landscapes by day

This is not a trip.
It’s a shift in perspective.
