Made overall area smaller. Changed the coordinates of the start to move it to the edge of top and left border. Changed actual star slightly so that numbers were all divisible by 5. 20:27, 23 November 2009: 275 × 275 (402 bytes) Crazytonyi: Added DTD declaration and converted from path element to polygon element.
The following is a list of stars with resolved images, that is, stars whose images have been resolved beyond a point source. Aside from the Sun, observed from Earth, stars are exceedingly small in apparent size, requiring the use of special high-resolution equipment and techniques to image.
A golden star. See also Image:Star.svg. File usage. More than 100 pages use this file. The following list shows the first 100 pages that use this file only.
The photosphere is that portion of a star that is visible to an observer. This is the layer at which the plasma of the star becomes transparent to photons of light. From here, the energy generated at the core becomes free to propagate into space. It is within the photosphere that sun spots, regions of lower than average temperature, appear. [204]
The following is a list of particularly notable actual or hypothetical stars that have their own articles in Wikipedia, but are not included in the lists above.. BPM 37093 — a diamond star
Zeta Reticuli, Latinized from ζ Reticuli, is a wide binary star system in the southern constellation of Reticulum. From the southern hemisphere the pair can be seen with the naked eye as a double star in very dark skies. Based upon parallax measurements, this system is located at a distance of about 39.3 light-years (12 parsecs) from Earth.
Comparisons of 1. opacity, 2. translucency, and 3. transparency; behind each panel is a star. Opacity is the measure of impenetrability to electromagnetic or other kinds of radiation, especially visible light.
