Are you a star?

On the lighter side... Yes I am a star; I am Acamar or as I am properly called, "Theta Eridani" (but that's just my stage name). I am a star in the constellation Eridanus. I am actually a double star, as astronomy experts call me. Ptolemy declared I was "a first-magnitude star" which is quite a distinction I think since Ptolemy was such a scholarly Roman. He recognized my "star quality" early on; in fact, he may have "discovered" me as he studied the night skies, even though I'm at least 120 light-years from where he stood on Earth. Throughout history, other astronomers noticed me too, since I'm one of the brightest stars in the sky! Though I've starred a long, long time, regretfully, I have never received any award. But I know, to paraphrase the famous words of Sally Field, that people do "like me; they really, really like me!"
