你知道一些最亮的星星的名字吗?你很可能知道,尽管一些明亮的恒星的名字非常古老,可以追溯到文字开始的时候。世界上许多文化对最亮的星星都有自己的名字,记住它们在文化和历史上都很重要。然而,为了全球清晰的交流,国际天文学联合会(IAU)已经开始指定标准化的恒星名称。这张彩色照片展示了目前人类能看到的夜空中最亮的25颗恒星,以及它们的国际天文学联合会(iau)认可的名称。一些恒星的名字有着有趣的含义,包括天狼星(拉丁语中的“炙热的”),织女星(阿拉伯语中的“坠落的”)和心宿二(希腊语中的“火星的对手”)。你甚至可能对至少一颗星的名字很熟悉,因为它太暗而无法进入这个名单:北极星。几乎超空间:随机APOD生成器

Do you know the names of some of the brightest stars? It's likely that you do, even though some bright stars have names so old they date back to near the beginning of written language. Many world cultures have their own names for the brightest stars, and it is culturally and historically important to remember them. In the interest of clear global communication, however, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has begun to designate standardized star names. Featured here in true color are the 25 brightest stars in the night sky, currently as seen by humans, coupled with their IAU-recognized names. Some star names have interesting meanings, including Sirius ("the scorcher" in Latin), Vega ("falling" in Arabic), and Antares ("rival to Mars" in Greek). You are likely even familiar with the name of at least one star too dim to make this list: Polaris. Almost Hyperspace: Random APOD Generator
