Crater is a small constellation in the southern celestial hemisphere. Its name is the latinization of the Greek krater, a type of cup used to water down wine. One of the 48 constellations listed by the second-century astronomer Ptolemy, it depicts a cup that has been associated with the god Apollo and is perched on the back of Hydra the water snake.
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 as a naked eye double star in very dark skies. Based upon parallax measurements, this system is located at a distance of about 39.3 light-years from Earth. Both stars are solar analogs that have characteristics similar to those of the Sun. They belong to the Zeta Herculis Moving Group of stars that share a common origin.
Alpha Cygni variables are variable stars which exhibit non-radial pulsations, meaning that some portions of the stellar surface are contracting at the same time others parts expand. They are supergiant stars of spectral types B or A. Variations in brightness on the order of 0.1 magnitudes are associated with the pulsations, which often seem irregular, due to beating of multiple pulsation periods. The pulsations typically have periods of several days to several weeks.
Jabłoń-Dobki is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Nowe Piekuty, within Wysokie Mazowieckie County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland.
HD 213240 is a yellow main sequence star located approximately 133 light years away in the constellation Grus. The magnitudes were m=6.80 and M=3.75. It is a metal-rich star and more evolved than our sun. Its age has been calculated as being anywhere from 2.7 to 4.6 billion years. A red dwarf companion star was detected in 2005 with a projected separation of 3898 AU.
Sakaide Station is a railway station in Sakaide, Kagawa Prefecture, Japan.
HD 134064 is a binary star system in the northern constellation of Boötes. The pair are separated by a distance of around 8,000 AU.
Sant'Antonio is a town in Val Poschiavo, Grisons, Switzerland. It belongs to the municipality of Poschiavo.
RT Andromedae is a variable star in the constellation of Andromeda. The system is estimated to be 322 light-years away.
Kepler-19 is a G7V star that is host to planets Kepler-19b, Kepler-19c, and Kepler-19d. It is located five arcminutes northwest of the much more distant open cluster NGC 6791.
Çığlık is a village in the District of Gazipaşa, Antalya Province, Turkey.
55 Cygni is a blue supergiant star in the constellation Cygnus. It is thought to be a member of the Cygnus OB7 stellar association at about 2,700 light years.
HD 137058 is a star in the southern constellation of Lupus. Eggleton and Tokovinin (2008) list it as a single star, although Nitschelm and David (2011) noted it may be a double-lined spectroscopic binary. Its apparent visual magnitude is 4.60, which is bright enough to be visible to the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 13.6 mas, it is located 240 light years away.
75 Tauri is a single, orange-hued star in the zodiac of constellation Taurus. It is a dim star but visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.96. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 17.47 mas as seen from Earth's orbit, it is located around 187 light years away. Due to its position near the ecliptic, it is subject to lunar occultations. The star is moving further from the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of +16 km/s.
83 Ursae Majoris is a candidate binary star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Ursa Major. This is a semiregular variable star, like Mira; for that reason it has been given the variable star designation IQ Ursae Majoris. It ranges in brightness from apparent visual magnitude 4.69 to 4.75. Percy and Au (1994) identified it as a small amplitude red variable with an irregular behavior, having a characteristic time scale of 20 days. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 6.23±0.22 mas, it is located roughly 520 light years from the Sun. The system is moving closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −18.6 km/s.
33 Pegasi is the Flamsteed designation for a visual binary star in the northern constellation of Pegasus. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.2, placing it near the limit of naked eye visibility. Measurements made with the Hipparcos spacecraft show an annual parallax shift of 0.02967″, which is equivalent to a distance of roughly 110 ly (34 pc) from the Sun.
The French Bilingual School of South Carolina is an overseas French school in Wade Hampton in unincorporated Greenville County, South Carolina, in the Greenville-Spartanburg area. The school serves Kindergarten through the 12th grade and uses the curriculum of the French Ministry of Education. The elementary section includes grades K4-5, the middle section includes grades 6-9, and the high school section is 10-12. Michelin opened and operates the school for its employees working in South Carolina. For that reason it is also known as the Michelin French School. French expatriate families who do not work for Michelin are required to pay tuition.
Lincoln Township is a township in Rice County, Kansas, in the United States.
NGC 4349 is an open cluster in the constellation Crux. It was discovered by James Dunlop in 1826. It is located approximately 7,000 light years away from Earth.
