What nomenclature is used to identify variable stars?
In a given constellation, the first variable stars discovered were designated with letters R through Z The current naming system is:- * Stars with existing Greek letter designations are not given new designations. * Otherwise, start with R and go through Z. * Continue with RR...RZ, then use SS...SZ, TT...TZ and so on until ZZ. * Use AA...AZ, BB...BZ, CC...CZ and so on until reaching QZ, omitting J in both the first and second positions. * Finally give up on the Roman alphabet after 334 combinations of letters and start naming stars with V335, V336, and so on.
Who named stars by assigning them to constellations and giving them greek letter?
Johannes Bayer assigned Greek letters to stars within each constellation in his 1603 star atlas "Uranometria". This naming convention is still used today to identify stars, especially within the Bayer designation system.

What is galactic alphabet?
The Standard Galactic Alphabet (SGA) is a writing system used throughout the Commander Keen series. It is a simple substitution cypher, where each letter in the Latin alphabet has been substituted with a different symbol. The SGA can be used to write in different languages; however, in the games the SGA is used to write messages in the English language onlyThere is some debate over the shape of some of the letters, such as the Z. In the reference translation above (which is remarkably similar to the translation found in Keen 3), it is shown as two vertical bars with a horizontal bar connecting them at the top. In Keen 6, the translation image is much smaller so each "bar" appears only one pixel wide/high. This gives the impression it should be a rounded shape, like an upside down U. However because of the increased resolution in the Keen 3 version, one could argue that it is not supposed to be rounded, otherwise it would contain curves like the letters N and O do (or even the top of the letter A.)The SGA was created by Tom Hall. Originally for Keen 1 he drew some graphics for 'Exit' signs which he made look a bit more alien by changing the ordinary Latin letters a bit. After that he added other signs saying "hi" and "this is neat" (near Rayguns), and he ended up creating conversions for the other letters of the Latin alphabet in order for the signs to resemble writings in an alien language.

How do scientist name hurricanes once all the letters in the alphabet are used in one season?
When all the letters in the alphabet are used for naming hurricanes in a single season, meteorologists use the Greek alphabet to assign names. This practice was adopted in 2005, allowing for additional names like Alpha, Beta, and Gamma to be used. However, the use of Greek letters has been discontinued in favor of a new naming convention, which involves the creation of supplemental lists for future seasons. These supplemental lists will include additional names that can be used if the standard list is exhausted.
Why not all letters of the alphabet have been used for hurricanes?
There are not enough names starting with U, Q, X, Y, or Z for them to work in the current naming system.
What are the least used letters in the alphabet?

Are they any letters of the alphabet not used for hurricane names?
Yes, there are several letters of the alphabet that are not used for naming hurricanes. These include letters such as Q, U, X, Y, and Z. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) does not include these letters in the list of names due to the limited availability of names starting with those letters.
What are letters not used for names for hurricanes?
Letters not used for naming hurricanes include Q, U, X, Y, and Z. These letters are excluded because there are not enough names that can be formed with them, making it difficult to create a diverse list of storm names. The naming system aims to provide clear communication, and the limited options for these letters would hinder that goal. Consequently, the lists of names for hurricanes utilize only the remaining letters of the alphabet.
