A supernova is not a celestial body in itself, but rather an astronomical event where a star suddenly increases greatly in brightness due to an explosive burst of energy. It is the result of the death of a massive star.

A star at the celestial equator will move 15 degrees in altitude per hour, and 15 arcseconds in 1 second of time. This is because the celestial equator intersects the celestial sphere at 90 degrees from the north and south celestial poles, so the stars appear to move in circles around the celestial poles.
My planet orbits a star known as the Sun, which is a G-type main-sequence star.
Some celestial bodies that begin with the letter "A" include asteroids, auroras, and the planet Venus (known as the "Evening Star").
Star Ferry was created in 1888.

Yes. The North Star is aligned with the celestial north pole.
While there is a star which is, entirely coincidentally, pretty close to the North Celestial Pole, there is no corresponding star near the South Celestial Pole.
Celestial coordinates. -- The star's latitude on the celestial sphere is the same as the Earth latitude that it seems to follow on its way aroujnd the sky. On the celestial sphere, the latitude is called "declination", and is expressed in degrees. -- The star's longitude on the celestial sphere is its angle, measured westward, from the point in the sky called the Vernal Equinox ... the point where the sun appears to cross the celestial equator in March. On the celestial sphere, the star's longitude is called "Right Ascension", and it's expressed in hours. That certainly seems confusing, but an "hour of Right Ascension" just means 15 degrees of celestial longitude. So, as the sky turns, the point directly over your head moves through the stars by 1 hour of Right Ascension every hour.
Astronomers use celestial spheres and mathematical equations to approximate the distances between the star and other celestial objects.
A large celestial body that is composed of gas and emits light is called a star.
You can find your celestial address by using a star map and finding your coordinates. Star maps are available for sale online and in stores.

It is called the Star Ferry (天星小輪).
No. A celestial object is an object in outer space, such as a planet, star, meteor or comet. Clouds are not in outer space, therefore they are not a celestial object.
