Stars are classified as to their color temperature using a series of letters and numbers. The letters run (from hottest to coolest) O B A F G K M L T. The numbers represent points in between the letters. For example, a G2 star is between G and K, but closer to G (the numbers run from 0 to 9; G5 is halfway between G and K).
