What is the second Brightest star in Ursa Minor?

Answer 1

HD37605 with an apparent magnitude of 5.53 may be the dimmest named star. However, there are many, many stars in any given constellation which are too dim to see even with a powerful telescope, so in a sense there's no "dimmest star".

Answer 2

Alpha Andromedae (Alpheratz, Alpherat, Sirrah, Sirah), is the brightest star in the constellation of Andromeda with an apparent magnitude of between +2.22 and 4.21 (This is because it is a variable star)

Answer 4

One estimate for the number of stars in the observable universe is about 1022. Ursa minor covers about 0.62% of the sky, so that would mean there are around 6x1019 stars in Ursa Minor, nearly all of which are far too faint to see.

The question indicates that you don't know what a constellation is. A constellation is not a "picture" or pattern of stars in the sky (that would be an asterism); a constellation is a defined patch of the sky with definite borders and contains literally billions of billions of stars.

There are 7 stars in the "little dipper" asterism in Ursa Minor, if that's what you were trying to ask.

Answer 5

There are several. Which one you're referring to depends on how bright, how near,

and in which direction.

If you're looking southeast of Orion ... below and to the left of his right foot, as seen

in the northern Hemisphere ... then you're looking at the single brightest star in the

night sky (ignoring the sun, moon, and planets). That's "Sirius", sometimes called

the "Dog Star" after its position in Canis Major ... the "Big Dog".

Answer 6

Ursa Minor is a constellation ... a collection of individual stars that appear to form a pattern

in the sky because of their positions. The stars of a constellation have no connection or

association with each other. Each one has its own individual color, temperature, size, and

distance from our solar system.

Answer 7

• α And - Alpheratz, Alpherat, Sirrah
• β And - Mirach, Merach, Mirac, Mizar
• γ And - Almach, Almaak, Alamak, Almak, Almaach
