		It is standard "knowledge" in astronomy that "Alpha" represents the brightest star in a constellation, "Beta" the second brightest, and so on.
		Alchiba, the Alpha star of Corvus, the Crow, is a fine example.
		Of the Alpha stars of the classical constellations, Alchiba, at mid-fourth magnitude (4.02), ranks number 3 from the bottom, beaten out (if that is the word) only by Alpha Crateris (Alkes) and Alpha

		Having found the seven stars, we make use of the pointers [alpha] and [beta] (shown in Plate 1) to indicate the place of the Pole-star, whose distance from the pointer [alpha] is rather more than three times the distance of [alpha] from [beta].
		Fletcher observed [alpha] Orionis brighter than Capella, and actually the largest star in the northern hemisphere.” That a star so conspicuous, and presumably so large, should present such remarkable variations, is a circumstance which adds an additional interest to the results which have rewarded the spectrum-analysis of this star by Mr.
		Immediately above Mira is the star [alpha] Piscium at the knot of the Fishes’ connecting band. This is a fine double, the distance between the components being about 3-1/2”, their magnitudes 5 and 6, their colours pale green and blue (see Plate 5).

		For example, the five brightest stars in the constellation of Cygnus the Swan (comprising an arrangement also known as the Northern Cross) are approximately 74, 270, 410, 750 and 1600 light-years from the Sun.
		Moreover, the dimmest of the quintet, Gienah (Epsilon Cygni), lies nearest to the Sun while the brightest, Deneb (Alpha Cygni), is the most remote.
		Were these two stars to exchange places, Deneb, which is intrinsically one of the most luminous stars visible to the naked eye, would outshine Venus in our night sky.

	Bayer-Flamsteed Designations
		The three-letter code, which, if given, preceeds the code for a star's constellation, is an abbreviation of the name of a Greek letter -- the Bayer designation for a star.
		Bayer ranked the stars (not always precisely) by brightness, with the alpha star typically being the brightest in a given constellation, beta the second brightest, and so on, down through the Greek alphabet.
		If a star is a double star, a -1 or -2 is used after the Greek letter to distinguish between the two stars.

		The star [alpha] (_Betelgeuse_) is an interesting object, on account of its colour and brilliance, and as one of the most remarkable variables in the heavens.
		It will be noticed that the stars [epsilon], [alpha], [beta], and [gamma] form, with two small stars towards the left, a somewhat regular hexagonal figure--a hexagon, in fact, having three equal long sides and three nearly equal short sides alternating with the others.
		Now a line from [alpha] to [nu] produced passes very near to 61 Cygni at a distance from [nu] somewhat greater than half the distance of [nu] from [alpha].

	LHS 2397a / LP 732-94
		It lies in the northwest part (11:21:49-13:13.1 C~, ICRS 2000.0) of Constellation Crater, the Cup -- roughly north of Alkes (Alpha Crateris), northwest of Delta Crateris, northeast of Nu Hydrae, and south of Constellation Leo.
		Also known as Luyten Palomar (LP) 732-94, the relatively high proper motion of this dim star was probably discovered by Willem Jacob Luyten (1899-1994), possibly with Charles T. Kowal of Palomar Observatory (who discovered asteroid 38 Leda and the comet-like Edgeworth-Kuiper object, 2060 Chiron).
		Although not as bright as the Constellation's Delta Crateris, Alpha Crateris was given first rank by Bayer; its proper name is Alkes, Arabic for the "Wine Cup." Along with Constellation Corvus, the Crow, Crater rides the back of Hydra, the Water Serpent.

		Among the dimmest of all classical constellations is Crater, the Cup, which with Corvus, the Crow, rides the back of Hydra, the Water Serpent.
		The only proper name in the constellation, "Alkes" comes from Arabic and means "the wine cup," the star standing in for the whole figure (the name also clearly related to the English "alcohol.") Though mid-fourth magnitude (4.07), Alkes received the Alpha designation from Bayer.
		It takes second place to the un-named Delta star (that is, to Delta Crateris), and is in a virtual dead heat with Gamma Crateris.

	How Astronomical Objects Are Named
		The proper name for such stars is the greek letter followed by the genitive form of the constellation name (for example, Alpha Canis Majoris is a bright star in Canis Major, Beta Geminorus is a bright star in Gemini and so on).
		While the “alpha” star is often the brightest star in a constellation, this is not always the case.
		This indicates four stars, 58 Orionis also known as Alpha Orionis, 19 Orionis also known as Beta Orionis and the two variable stars W Orionis and BL Orionis.

		Here we find a theme of integration--to fully embrace the primordial aspects of life and the spiritual aspects as one, by infusing the high spiritual awareness of soul in and through our carnality to become the glistening diamonds we can be.

		The Bayer designation consists of two parts: a Greek letter, such as Alpha, to designate the particular star in a constellation and usually in descending order of brightness; and the name of the constellation in the Latin genitive (possessive) case, such as Ursae Minoris and meaning "of Ursa Minor".
		Each star in a constellation was assigned a Greek letter, usually starting with the brightest (alpha), and the name of the constellation was appended.
		Thus the first and brightest star of the constellation Andromeda is Alpha Andromedae, and in Ursa Minor we have Alpha Ursae Minoris (Polaris), and so forth.
