    The document summarizes key information about stars and astronomy. It discusses the different types of stars, including their sizes, temperatures, and colors. It also describes binary and multiple star systems, as well as variable stars like novae and supernovae. Additionally, it covers the motion, proper motion, triangulation, and parallax of stars as methods used to measure their distances from Earth.

    The Stars
    On the near night you may see over two thousands stars in the sky, in heaven something like six thousand stars that observe by the naked eye. In our modern telescope we observe that the billion of stars that detects.

    2 known stars
    1. Proxima Centauri A.K.A. Alpha Centauri -which is about same distance from the sun, and a very bright stars Is Sirius which is 8.6 light years. 2. Alpha Hercules -is the largest star which is about 200,000 times the size of the sun. Constellation is a group of fixed stars. Ex: Big Dipper Big dipper is the Little Dipper with the Polaris at the end of this handle.

    4 types of stars
    1. The larger, cool, red stars 2. The smaller, bluish-white, very hot stars 3. The still smaller, yellow, hot stars 4. The small, cool, red stars In this stage the higher reaches temperature is greater tha 25,000 C that gives off light and heat at a tremendous rate.

    Double and Multiple stars


    In our galaxy, many stars that composite stars usually double binary, but, if more than two is a multiple stars. Polaris- is actually three stars. Sirius- is typical double stars.

    2 group of Variable stars


    1. Nova- is a faint star which in a split second burned with a great brilliance. 2. Supernova- the explosion of a massive star in which most of its matter.

    Motion of stars
    The motion of stars is obtained by spectrographic data, and the movement of stars by average with relation to one another is about 18 miles per second.

    Proper Motion of stars


    The one that estimating the distance of stars, and the stars move thought very little over a long of period of time, and some stars shows a proper motion of one second or a move of arc per year.

    Triangulation
    Is used by the surveyors to measure the distance of stars from the earth.

    Parallax
    Is refers to the apparent shift of an object viewed from two different places. Example: A star with a parallax of 0.4 seconds of an arc is 2.5 per seconds away.
