A Guide to Star Names

Star names are the names given to stars. They are used to describe the colors of the stars, as well as their history, shape, and size. In the past, many cultures had their own names for the stars, including Greek, Egyptian, and Chinese. However, most modern-day people are not aware of these ancient names. Thankfully, there are now books that discuss these names and their meaning.
