* Constellations are groupings of stars: These stars are all at vastly different distances from Earth.
* Stars within a constellation are spread over huge distances: Some stars in a constellation could be relatively close to us, while others are lightyears away.
For example, in the constellation Orion, the star Betelgeuse is about 643 lightyears away, while Rigel is about 863 lightyears away.
Instead of talking about the distance of a constellation, we focus on the distances of individual stars within it.
If you want to know the distance to a particular star in a constellation, you can find that information online or using stargazing apps.
