Greer Garson, world-famous star of stage, screen and television, will be honored for the high standard in tasteful sophisticated fashion with which she has created a high standard in her profession.

Rudy Vallee, who shares star billing with Mr. Morse, makes only two appearances.

I can't tell you now the distance in lightyears or what star this was, though you can see it with the naked eye at night in this hemisphere.

While a number of interesting celestial objects are readily identified by the naked eye, sometimes with the aid of a star chart, many others are so faint or inconspicuous that technical means are necessary to locate them.

The main feature of the family is the composite flower type in the form of capitula surrounded by involucral bracts. The name " Asteraceae " comes from Aster, the most prominent generum in the family, that derives from the Greek ἀστήρ meaning star, and is connected with its inflorescence star form.

The name probably means " she who ( comes ) at dusk ," which would identify Aphrodite in her personification as the evening star, a significant parallel she shares with Mesopotamian Ishtar.

In the 16th century, Tycho Brahe used improved instruments, including large mural instruments, to measure star positions more accurately than previously, with a precision of 15 – 35 arcsec.

The primary ( ζ < sup > 1 </ sup > Ant ) is of magnitude 5. 8, though it is a double star with a primary of magnitude 6. 2 and a secondary of magnitude 7. 0.

* δ Apodis is a double star with a separation of 103 arcseconds.

δ < sup > 1 </ sup > is a red giant star located 765 light years away, with a magnitude of 4. 7. δ < sup > 2 </ sup > is an orange giant star located 663 light years away, with a magnitude of 5. 3.

By a process known as self-attribution, it has been shown in numerous studies that individuals with knowledge of astrology tend to describe their personality in terms of traits compatible with their star sign.

They are interpreted as competitive siblings, with Lisa / Salieri being a serious, unappreciated professional and Bart / Mozart the successful, uncouth rock star ( complete with an opera based on " Beans, Beans, the Musical Fruit " to the music of Eine kleine Nachtmusik ).

In 2008, another female opera star, Diana Damrau, released a CD with seven Salieri coloratura arias.

One such star, however, with a right ascension nearly equal to that of γ Draconis, but in the opposite sense, was selected and kept under observation.

She was honored with a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2005 for her contributions to the entertainment industry.

Grant followed the album with her second Christmas album, Home For Christmas in 1992, which included the song " Breath of Heaven ( Mary's Song )", written by Chris Eaton and Grant, and would later be covered by many artists, including Donna Summer, Jessica Simpson ( who acknowledged Grant as one of her favorite artists ), Vince Gill, Sara Groves, Point of Grace, and Broadway star Barbara Cook.

The album was a multi-platinum success and produced the pop hit " Lucky One " ( No. 18 pop and No. 2 AC ; No. 1 on Radio & Records ) as well as the title track ( a duet with country music star and future husband Vince Gill ) ( No. 37 pop ) and a cover of Joni Mitchell's frequently covered " Big Yellow Taxi " ( No. 67 pop ) ( in which she changed the line " And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see em " to " And then they charged the people 25 bucks just to see em ").

These are colours associated with Venus as an evening and morning star.

For many years he simultaneously produced the daily strip, a weekly syndicated newspaper column, and a 500-station radio program ...." He ran the Boston Summer Theatre with The Phantom cartoonist Lee Falk, bringing in Hollywood actors such as Mae West, Melvyn Douglas and Claude Rains to star in their live productions.

The core of a star is kept from collapsing by the heat generated by the fusion of nuclei of lighter elements into heavier ones.

If a main-sequence star is not too massive ( less than approximately 8 solar masses ), it will eventually shed enough mass to form a white dwarf having mass below the Chandrasekhar limit, which will consist of the former core of the star.

For more massive stars, electron degeneracy pressure will not keep the iron core from collapsing to very great density, leading to formation of a neutron star, black hole, or, speculatively, a quark star.

Since the Hubble sequence is entirely based upon visual morphological type, it may miss certain important characteristics of galaxies such as star formation rate ( in starburst galaxies ) and activity in the core ( in active galaxies ).

After a star has formed, it creates energy at the hot, dense core region through the nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms into helium.

After the hydrogen fuel at the core has been consumed, the star evolves away from the main sequence on the HR diagram.

A star remains near its initial position on the main sequence until a significant amount of hydrogen in the core has been consumed, then begins to evolve into a more luminous star.

When nuclear fusion in the core of the star stops, the star collapses.

The gas falling inward either rebounds or gets so strongly heated that it expands outwards from the core, thus causing the star to explode.

When neutron star core material is presumed to consist mostly of free neutrons, it is typically referred to as neutron-degenerate matter in scientific literature.

In contrast, all proposed forms of neutron star core material are fluids and are extremely unstable at pressures lower than that found in stellar cores.

* In Larry Niven's Known Space fictional universe ( 1964 ), neutronium is actual neutron star core material.

As the core of a massive star is compressed during a supernova, and collapses into a neutron star, it retains most of its angular momentum.

As only 30 to 40 per cent of the gas in the cloud core forms stars, the process of residual gas expulsion is highly damaging to the star formation process.

In the Sun, deuterium-producing events are so rare ( diprotons, the much more common result of nuclear reactions within the star, immediately decay back into two protons ) that a complete conversion of the star's hydrogen would take more than ( ten billion ) years at the prevailing conditions of its core.

For at least a portion of its life, a star shines due to thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium in its core, releasing energy that traverses the star's interior and then radiates into outer space.

Once the hydrogen fuel at the core is exhausted, a star with at least 0. 4 times the mass of the Sun expands to become a red giant, in some cases fusing heavier elements at the core or in shells around the core.

Meanwhile, the core becomes a stellar remnant: a white dwarf, a neutron star, or ( if it is sufficiently massive ) a black hole.

The mass of the star is calculated to be 15 to 18 solar masses.

Altair is a type-A main sequence star with approximately 1. 8 times the mass of the Sun and 11 times its luminosity.

The Chandrasekhar limit () is the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star.

This fate may befall carbon-oxygen white dwarfs that accrete matter from a companion giant star, leading to a steadily increasing mass.

Unbound free-floating planetary-mass bodies in the Milky Way may number in the trillions, with 100, 000 objects larger than Pluto for every main-sequence star .< ref > Nomads of the Galaxy, Louis E. Strigari, Matteo Barnabe, Philip J. Marshall, Roger D. Blandford ; estimates 700 objects > 10 < sup >- 6 </ sup > Solar masses (≈ a Mars mass ) per main sequence star between 0. 08 and 1 Solar mass, of which there are billions in the Milky Way .</ ref >

: As a planet orbits a star, the star also moves in its own small orbit around the system's center of mass.

However if the radial-velocity of the planet itself can be distinguished from the radial-velocity of the star then the true mass can be determined.

For example, a detector with the mass of Jupiter and 100 % efficiency, placed in close orbit around a neutron star, would only be expected to observe one graviton every 10 years, even under the most favorable conditions.

The mass of a very large star or black hole may be identified with its Schwarzschild radius ().

With decreasing stellar mass, the proportion of the star forming a convective envelope steadily increases, while main-sequence stars below 0. 4 solar masses undergo convection throughout their mass.

The behavior of a star now depends on its mass, with stars below 0. 23 solar masses becoming white dwarfs directly, while stars with up to ten solar masses pass through a red giant stage.

The initial mass of the star depends on the local conditions within the cloud.

The mass, radius and luminosity of a star are closely interlinked, and their respective values can be approximated by three relations.

The values of luminosity ( L ), radius ( R ) and mass ( M ) are relative to the Sun — a dwarf star with a spectral classification of G2 V. The actual values for a star may vary by as much as 20 – 30 % from the values listed below.

In astrophysics, mass transfer is the process by which matter gravitationally bound to a body, usually a star, fills its Roche lobe and becomes gravitationally bound to a second body, usually a compact object ( white dwarf, neutron star or black hole ), and is eventually accreted onto it.
