BACKSTORY
--------------
Scorpio , in Greek Mythology, comes from the story of Orion . This giant of a man was the son of Poseidon and Euryale, and was also said to be the most handsome man alive. He and Artemis were hunting partners. This made her brother, Apollo , jealous. He went to Mother Earth and asked her to create a giant scorpion, which then stung and killed Orion . Zeus placed both of them in the heavens as a constellation. Scorpion is a pretty big constellation. The bright star, Antares, is the Scorpion's heart.
