Betelgeuse/ Orion from Mars

If you check out these four pictures;

It looks like they are different exposure lengths. the left picture has no star trails. The trails get longer as you go to the right pictures.

The left picture;

We are looking at the top portion of Orion. That bright star is Betelgeuse

Tonight I will look at Orion a little differently, as I know the Mars rovers can see the same thing.
