Trivia

The ship is named after the ancient constellation "Scorpius", which is located in the southern celestial hemisphere where it sits near the center of the Milky Way. Its representation as a scorpion is related to the Greek legend of the scorpion that stung Orion to death and is said to be why Orion sets as Scorpius rises in the night sky.<ref>Wikipedia: Scorpius</ref>
