  List of brightest stars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Below the 100 brightest stars as seen from Earth (by apparent magnitude at visible wavelengths) according to the Hipparcos sky survey.
The absolute magnitude is a measure of the star's luminosity – the total amount of visible energy radiated by a star every second, as it would be at a standard distance of 10 parsecs away from the star itself).
Note that even the brightest star, at a luminosity of 40 million suns, it is still not the brightest object in the universe.

This is a single star which suggested possible associated nebulosity to Bigourdan : The NGC 2000 does not give any Type while the MOL lists it as (Nonstellar Object) however, it should be remembered that both of these catalogues list all of the IC identities regardless of whether they exist as nonstellar objects or not.
From his star he measured the PA and Separation to his Nebula #1 as 288.8 and 110.27 tsec and that to his Nebula #2 as 285.5 and 169.26 tsec.

The selection of the TIC stars that will remain in the final catalogue is planned in two steps : The former is the "Recognition" that is based on the first year of the scientific mission.
On another side, some stars missing in the TIC have been added to the Tycho program, but the expected number of additional stars to appear in the final catalogue should be about 5 % or less.

 SPACE.com -- List of Largest Stars Gets 3 New Chart Toppers
The newly crowned largest stars, already known to astronomers as KW Sagitarri, V354 Cephei and KY Cygni, are all in our Milky Way galaxy and within 10,000 light-years of the Sun.
Despite their tremendous diameters, the stars are not the most massive in the universe, said MIT undergraduate student Emily Levesque, who presented the findings.
Astrosociology is the study of astrosocial phenomena (social/cultural patterns related to space), a multidisciplinary field open to all scientists and engineers interested in "space and society" issues.

If a planet is detected by the radial velocity method, no information is gained about the inclination of the planet's plane of orbit around its star, and a value for this is needed to calculate the mass.
According to astronomical naming conventions, the official designation for a body orbiting a star is the star's catalogue number followed by a letter.
The star itself is designated with the letter 'a', and orbiting bodies by 'b', 'c', etc. Some extrasolar planets have been given unofficial names, but these are not sanctioned by the International Astronomical Union which oversees astronomical naming, or used in the scientific literature.

That's because the moon, planets and stars are bright, whereas deep space objects like nebulae are dim, and the human eye cannot distinguish color in dim light.
The stars supply their own, and they openly display their genuine personalities; their true colors; the stuff they're made of.
For instance, aging carbon stars glow red; hot young stars are white or bluish; aging giants appear orange and red-orange.

Since I have stars much fainter than the limiting magnitude of the TASS cameras in these fields, if observers supply me with their extracted data files, I can see what the true limiting magnitude and saturation magnitude of the cameras are under varying conditions and filters.
This is the list of 735 known or suspected variables in the +-1.5 degree equatorial region from the Tycho catalog.
The fainter stars are included for use by on-going wide-field surveys with somewhat larger instruments, such as those in search of asteroids, and for calibration of digitized sky survey plates, such as the USNO series of immense star catalogues.

 Spaceflight Now | Breaking News | Shortening the list of stars that might have planets
Remarkably, their discovery gives astronomers a way to determine which other stars in the Galaxy are most likely to harbour planets and allows mission planners to draw up a 'short-list' of stars to be observed by ESA's future planet-search missions, Eddington and Darwin.
However, at great distances from the star, the gas and dust is sparse and can coalesce only into a vast band of small, icy bodies.
The only explanation is that the star has planets, comets, asteroids or other bodies that collide and generate the dust," says Malcolm Fridlund, ESA's study scientist for Darwin, the mission under development to search for life-supporting planets around other stars.

 GARY WILL: Deceased Pro Wrestlers -- A Tribute to Mat Stars of the Past -- Dead Wrestlers
There may not be another business as popular as pro wrestling in which there is so little recognition paid to its past stars and pioneers.
You can discover information on star performers from baseball, football, hockey, basketball, films, TV, music, and just about every other field on the Web or in your local library, but there's very little to be found on pro wrestling's greats...
Pro wrestling can be a very tough and dangerous life -- with the constant travel and performances, and the little time to recover from painful injuries that all wrestlers sustain (only recently and in the biggest organizations have wrestlers been able to collect a paycheck when injured -- and few are accepted for insurance coverage).
