Description
Mintaka is a star some 690 light years distant in the constellation Orion. The name Mintaka comes from manṭaqa, which means "the belt" in Arabic.Together with Alnitak (Zeta Orionis) and Alnilam (Epsilon Orionis), the three stars make up the belt of Orion, known by many names among ancient cultures. When Orion is close to the meridian, Mintaka is the right-most of the belt's stars as seen by an observer in the Northern Hemisphere facing south.
