Introduction
Bellatrix, also known as γ Orionis, Amazon Star, 24 Ori, Al Najīd, HR 1790, BD+06°919, HD 35468, SAO 112740, FK5 201 and HIP 25336, is a Main Sequence Giant Star located inside The Orion Constellation. Bellatrix has a mass of 8.6 Solar Masses, a radius of 5.75 Solar Radiuses and a luminosity of 9211 Solar Luminosities. Bellatrix has temperature of 22,000 Kelvin, a surface gravity of 3.60 centimetre-gram-second system of units and is 25.2 Million Years Old. Bellatrix is located 250 Light Years from The Sun. Profile of Bellatrix Bellatrix is often used as The Standard Star; The Photometric Standard Star and The Spectral Standard Star. The Photometric Standard is used to help define stars with the UBV magnitude system, this system is used by The Johnson Center in order to categorize stars based on what color they are. The Spectral Standard is used to define and classify the brightest of the star. Bellatrix is big and blue, in fact it is around 8.6 fold the mass of The Sun. Bellatrix was given the nickname The Amazon Star by Arabia which was translated from Al Najīd, which means Conqueror! Bellatrix is Latin for female warrior.

Deneb has a mass of 19 Solar Masses, a radius of 203 Solar Radiuses and a luminosity of 196,000 Solar Luminosities. Deneb has a temperature of 8525 Kelvin and a surface gravity of 1.10 Centimetre-gram-second system of units. Deneb is 2615 Light Years from The Sun. Deneb is the 19th Birghtest Star in THe Night Sky. Profile of Deneb Deneb is also known as The Summer Triangle and The Head of The Northern Cross. Deneb is 2620 Light Years from Earth. Deneb is the most luminous First-Magnitude Star in the night sky. In Deneb's early life, it was an )-type Main Sequence star, meaning it's luminosity was class V. Introduction
Mayall's Object, also known as Arp 148, VV 032, MCG+07-23-019 and APG 148, is two colliding galaxies located inside The Ursa Major Constellation (Big Bear Constellation). Mayall's Object is located 450 Million Light Years from Earth. Mayall's Object is 12.85 Billion Years Old. The result of these two galaxies colliding is a ring shaped galaxy with a tail. Profile of Mayall's Object Mayall's Object was discovered on March 13th, 1940, by American Astronomer Nicholas Ulrich Mayall using the Crossley Reflector at the Lick Observatory. At First, Mayall's Object was believed to be a galaxy that was reacting to an intergaltic medium, which later was changed to what is believed to be today. Introduction
Achernar, also known as α Eri, CD -57°334, FK5 54, HD 10144, HIP 7588, HR 472, SAO 232481, 70 Eri, 2 G. Eri, 水委, is a Blue Main Sequence Star (B6 Vep) sevenfold the mass of The Sun located inside The Eridanus Constellation. Achernar is one of two stars located in a binary system called Alpha Eridani, α Eridani, Alpha Eri or α Eri. Achernar has a mass of 6.7 Solar Masses, a radius of 7.3 X 11.4 Solar Radiuses and a Luminosity of 3150 Solar Luminosities. Achernar has a Temperature of approximately 15,000 Kelvin and a Surface Gravity of 3.5 Centimetre-gram-second system of units. Achernar is 37.3 Million Years Old. Achernar is 139.9 Light Years from The Sun. Profile of Achernar Achernar is ninth brightest star in the night sky. Achernar can be seen from Cape Town, South Africa; Port Elizabeth, South Africa; and Dallas, Texas most notably. In The Ancient World, Achernar was observable much further South than in Today's World, The Ancient Eygptians would not hath been able to observe from Egypt for example and neither could The Classical Astronomer Ptolemy of The Classical World. Achernar is most noted for being an oval shaped like a chicken egg. Achernar is within our Galaxy, The Milky Way Galaxy and is in fact, the least spherical star observed within The Milky Way Galaxy.

Vega, also known as Wega, Lucida Lyrae, Alpha Lyrae, α Lyrae, 3 Lyrae, BD+38°3238, GCTP 4293.00, HD 172167, GJ 721, HIP 91262, HR 7001, LTT 15486 and SAO 67174, is a Blue-tinged White Main Sequence Star (A0V) located in the Lyra Constellation. Vega has a mass of 2.135 Solar Masses, a Solar Radius of 2.362 Solar Radiuses, and a Luminosity of 40.12 Solar Luminosities. Vega has a temperature of 9602 Kelvin and a Surface Gravity of 4.1 Centimetre-gram-second system of units. Vega is 455 Million Years Old. Vega is 25 Light Years from The Sun. Profile of Vega Vega is the fifth-brightest star in the night sky here on Earth. It is also the brightest star in the northern constellation of Lyra. It has been studied so much that it is in fact nicknamed "arguably the next most important star in the sky after the sun."[Sic] Around 12,000 B.C., when humans were thought to have walked to places on Earth such as Australia and New Guinea, was when Vega was the Northern Pole Star. Today that star is Polaris. Thought Vega is old, The Sun is tenfold the age of Vega making it relatively young. |
