Default Re: Lack of Star Names

I find that real names are just too "human-centric" with their Alphas and Betas and stuff - at least the stock ones sound kind of cosmic/futuristic/alien-ish without sacrificing too much pronouncability.


Did you actually look at the file? There are no alphas or betas.

now the problem with this, in hindsight, is that most of the visible stars in the sky are actually Galaxies. Not something you want to name your solar system. What you actually want, is a list of local stars, or names of stars in the Milkyway.


All of the names in the posted file are stars; no galaxy names present.
