Best Answer

Mathematics. You might also claim Latin, German or Arabic; many of the star names that we still use were recorded by Claudius Ptolemy in Roman times, and translated into Arabic. Ptolemy's star atlases did not survive in the European dark ages, and exist only because they were re-translated back into Latin by Spanish and Jewish scholars after the fall of Toledo to the Spanish. Many of the star names are still in the Arabic, which explains all the star names beginning with "Al".
