Hi,
I don’t recognize Scorpio at 25:12 – to me it seems very obvious that it is actually Orion seen on its side just above the western horizon.

Subject: [NavList] Constellations in "Moana"
Hello!
Recently I (with great pleasure) watched the "Moana" cartoon where a Polynesian girl was taught the way-finding.
Alas, I could not get a link on youtube for the actual scene (~25th minute into the film) where supposedly the Scorpio constellation was shown.
I need to confirm it was indeed the Scorpio. If not - which one then?
Thank you in advance.
Warm regards,
Tony
