Um, no I don’t think that’s the big dipper. That looks like this https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/Big_dipper_from_the_kalalau_lookout_at_the_kokee_state_park_in_hawaii.jpg/399px-Big_dipper_from_the_kalalau_lookout_at_the_kokee_state_park_in_hawaii.jpg

The three in a row looks more like Orion to me https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/151/590x/secondary/Astronomy-news-how-to-see-Orion-the-Hunter-at-night-constellation-Orion-August-sky-2019655.jpg?r=1566413622305

TIL.

Seems like it might also work to keep the windows from exploding outward if there were to be a fire inside (and assuming there are sprinklers to match on the inside.)
