At the present time this band consists of an almost perfect straight line. In the course of time, however, the two right-hand stars, Mintaka and Alnilam, will approach each other and form a naked-eye double; but the third, Alnitak, will drift away eastward so that the band will no longer exist.
Thus, these stars that we see forming one of the bands of Orion are like three ships out on the high seas that happen to be in line at the present moment, but in the future will be separated by thousands of miles of space. In fact, all these stars that at the present time constitute the constellation of Orion are bound for different ports, and all are journeying to different corners of the universe, so that the bands are being dissolved.

Look’s like God is in the process of loosening the bands of Orion!!!

1> All stars are in motion, no big deal.

2> Please share any facts to support your positive claim that something called "God" is in the process of doing anything.

3> Glad you brought up the 'story' of Job.

How would you like me to bet someone about your loyalty? I will kill everyone that you love to test your loyalty and to prove my point. But don't worry, I will give you another set of loved ones, to replace the ones that I killed, after I win the bet. That is the story of Job. Very scientific, isn't it?
