It is common for local societies to hold regular meetings, which may include activities such as star parties or presentations.

Aquarius is identified as " The Great One " in the Babylonian star catalogues and represents the god Ea himself, who is commonly depicted holding an overflowing vase.

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 Latin name ' Asteraceae ' is derived from the type genus Aster, which is a Greek term, meaning " star ".

The history of astrometry is linked to the history of star catalogues, which gave astronomers reference points for objects in the sky so they could track their movements.

The observations show that the cloud is asymmetrical and matches the pattern of X-ray binaries ( binary star systems containing black holes or neutron stars ), mostly on one side of the galactic center.

This problem is solved by reading other entries in the book, which quite explicitly specify that the Nile was low at 446. This year of the Muslim calendar ran from the 12th of April 1054 to the 1st of April 1055, which is compatible with the appearance of the star in July 1054, as its location ( admittedly rather vague ), is in the astrological sign of Gemini ( which, due to Axial precession, covers the eastern part of the Constellation Taurus ). The date of the event in 446 is harder to determine, but the reference to the level of the Nile refers to the period preceding its annual flood, which happens during the summer.

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.

As a result, it was identified in 2005 as a δ Scuti variable star.

A Bayer designation is a stellar designation in which a specific star is identified by a Greek letter, followed by the genitive form of its parent constellation's Latin name.

Readily identified by its orange hue, Alpha Trianguli Australis is a bright giant star of spectral class K2 IIb-IIIa with an apparent magnitude of + 1. 91, which lies away and has an absolute magnitude of-3. 68 and is 5500 times more luminous than our sun.

It was not until 31 January 1862 that Alvan Graham Clark observed a previously unseen star close to Sirius, later identified as the predicted companion.

X ‐ ray source counterparts to stars can be identified by calculating the angular separation between source centroids and position of the star.

Bassett also identified Jonathan Miller, a Footlights star in 1957.

Sigma Octantis is identified as the south pole star, over a degree away from the pole, but with a magnitude of 5. 5 it is barely visible on a clear night.

The first variable star was identified in 1638 when Johannes Holwarda noticed that Omicron Ceti ( later named Mira ) pulsated in a cycle taking 11 months ; the star had previously been described as a nova by David Fabricius in 1596.

Other colors identified Jews ( two triangles superimposed as a yellow star ), political prisoners, Jehovah's Witnesses, " anti-social " prisoners, and others the Nazis deemed undesirable.

The region around the star was found to be a strong source of radio waves in 1949 and X-rays in 1963, and was identified as one of the brightest objects in the sky in gamma rays in 1967.

While no public announcement was made to that effect, he was identified as chairman in the Chamber's press release announcing the 2011 star recipients.

Since in a majority of constellations the brightest star is designated Alpha ( α ), many people wrongly assume that Bayer meant to put the stars exclusively in order of their brightness, but in his day there was no way to measure stellar brightness precisely.

Of the 88 modern constellations, there are at least 30 in which " Alpha " is not the brightest star, and four of those lack an alpha star altogether.

At present () the museum is closed for refurbishment but there is a temporary museum, on the site, where all their ' star finds ' are displayed.

On alleged " star treatment " during Game 6 by the refs toward certain players, Beech claimed, " there does seem to be issues with different standards and allowances for different players.

The remaining, more difficult part, is to prove that for there is no equivalent regular expression of star height less than n ; a proof is given in.

A large number of the star systems shown on the map of the Frontier sector in the basic rulebook were unexplored and undetailed, allowing the Gamemaster ( called the " referee " in the game ) to put whatever they wished there.

He was given the surname Bar Kokhba ( Aramaic for " Son of a Star ", referring to the Star Prophecy of, " there shall step forth a star out of Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite through the corners of Moab ") by his contemporary, the Jewish sage Rabbi Akiva.

Star names from these catalogues include the initials of which of the four catalogues they are from ( though the Southern follows the example of the Bonner and uses BD ; CPD is often shortened to CP ), followed by the angle of declination of the star ( rounded towards zero, and thus ranging from + 00 to + 89 and-00 to-89 ), followed by an arbitrary number as there are always thousands of stars at each angle.

ABC agreed, although they wanted to have one star to help attract European audiences to the film when it would be shown theatrically there.

Thus there could be smaller, terrestrial planets orbiting closer to the star.

This piece of apparently routine work proved very fruitful — it led to the discovery that all the stars of very faint absolute magnitude were of spectral class M. In conversation on this subject ( as I recall it ), I asked Pickering about certain other faint stars, not on my list, mentioning in particular 40 Eridani B. Characteristically, he sent a note to the Observatory office and before long the answer came ( I think from Mrs Fleming ) that the spectrum of this star was A. I knew enough about it, even in these paleozoic days, to realize at once that there was an extreme inconsistency between what we would then have called " possible " values of the surface brightness and density.
