Hi all,

As my interests in astronomy have matured I find myself taking more and
more
of my observing time on stars per se. I remember reading an article on the
net some time back on star colors and why they look the way they do.
Sadly,
I've lost the link and can't seem to find it again. I find star colors
really interesting and would really appreciate if any one could point me
in
the direction of any article having to do with star colors.

I shot the Sigma Cassiopeiae double the other night and I can't believe it
but the companion is really a light green. See he

I would love to find out why a star would actually look green!

Hi Jose,

IIRC, S&T did a nice write up on this a few years back. It is amazing what
color contrasts will do. It was interesting to read about, but sometimes at
the scope, "Ours is not to reason why. Ours is but to enjoy!"
