The location of Pi5 Orionis (π5) in the constellation of Orion (shown as a red circle with a red center)
Pi Orionis (π Ori, π Orionis) is a group of fairly widely scattered stars in the constellationOrion that constitute the asterismOrion's Shield or Orion's Bow.[1]
They form an exception to the general rule that stars that share the same Bayer designation are close together: π1 is nearly 9° north of π6 (Tau Eridani is an even more noteworthy example of this).
