I just ran into this group of stars at the edge of our galaxy.
i think they look great.
This would be a good place for an add-on.

Here is the celurl:

That cluster of stars is known as Theta Orionis. The four brightest also are called "The Trapezium".

They're what illuminate M42, which also is known as "The Orion Nebula". At least a couple of Addons are available, and I suspect others may be in development.
