If the orientation of the phenomenon does not correspond to the petroglyph, the relative orientation of the crescent moon in relation to the star corresponds, along with the order of size of the angular distance between the two stars.

If light moves instantaneously, the telescope does not move, and the true direction of the star relative to the observer can be found by following the line ES.

If two sets are used, each player controls two differently colored sets of pieces at opposite corners of the star.

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.

: If a planet crosses ( or transits ) in front of its parent star's disk, then the observed brightness of the star drops by a small amount.

If several planets in the same system are discovered at the same time, the closest one to the star gets the next letter, followed by the other planets in order of orbital size.

If a planet orbits one member of a binary star system, then an uppercase letter for the star will be followed by a lowercase letter for the planet.

If the parent star is a single star, then it may still be regarded as having an " A " designation, though the " A " is not normally written.

If the occulting object has an atmosphere, however, some of the luminosity of the star can be refracted into the volume of the umbra.

Anderson is best remembered as a film maker for his " Mick Travis trilogy ", all of which star Malcolm McDowell as the title character: If .... ( 1968 ), a satire on public schools ; O Lucky Man!

If the brightness of the object exceeded the maximum limit of eight times the brightness of Canopus, the spacecraft would search for a new star.

If a white dwarf has a close companion star that overflows its Roche lobe, the white dwarf will steadily accrete gas from the companion's outer atmosphere.

If the universe is static and populated by an infinite number of stars, any sight line from Earth must end at the ( very bright ) surface of a star, so the night sky should be completely bright.

If a star's core becomes stagnant ( as is thought will be the case for the Sun ), it will still be surrounded by layers of hydrogen which the star may subsequently draw upon.

If the core of the star is not too massive ( less than approximately 1. 4 solar mass, taking into account mass loss that has occurred by this time ), it may then form a white dwarf ( possibly surrounded by a planetary nebula ) as described above for less massive stars, with the difference that the white dwarf is composed chiefly of oxygen, neon, and magnesium.

If the mass of the core exceeds the Chandrasekhar limit, electron degeneracy pressure will be unable to support its weight against the force of gravity, and the core will undergo sudden, catastrophic collapse to form a neutron star or ( in the case of cores that exceed the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff limit ), a black hole.

If the star temperature has been determined by a majority of absorption lines, unusual absences or strengths of lines for a certain element may indicate an unusual chemical composition of the photosphere.

:: If the repeaters in a network that is based upon the physical extended star topology are replaced with hubs or switches, then a hybrid network topology is created that is referred to as a physical hierarchical star topology, although some texts make no distinction between the two topologies.

If, as has been suggested, the reference in the Talmud to " a star which appears once in seventy years that makes the captains of the ships err " ( see above ) refers to Halley's Comet, it may be a reference to the 66 CE appearance, because this passage is attributed to the Rabbi Yehoshua ben Hananiah.

If a binary star happens to orbit in a plane along our line of sight, its components will eclipse and transit each other ; these pairs are called eclipsing binaries, or, as they are detected by their changes in brightness during eclipses and transits, photometric binaries.

If components in binary star systems are close enough they can gravitationally distort their mutual outer stellar atmospheres.
