41The1Ori is an epic variable star. It sits in the constellation Ori, shines at apparent magnitude 4.98 and has spectral type O7.
Its spectrum reads O7 — an O-type star — the hottest, rarest main class there is. Fewer than one star in a million is an O, and none of them lasts long.
Look for 41The1Ori in the constellation Ori. At apparent magnitude 4.98, it can be glimpsed with the unaided eye under dark skies.
Like any astronomical target, 41The1Ori is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
41The1Ori scores 58 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the epic tier. Another 20 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Variable star, Naked-eye visible, In Orion's hunting ground, Blazing O-type star, Strongly variable and A named variable star — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
