About fixed stars Report incorrect information

A versioned named-star catalog

The Behenian collection identifies the fifteen stars reviewed against De Quindecim Stellis. This catalog shows only named stars with pinned reference coordinates; inclusion alone does not publish interpretive meaning.

Named identities: 596
Reference coordinates: 590
Behenian stars: 15
Current filtered results: 1

Names come from the synchronized IAU fixed-star catalog. Coordinates are pinned SIMBAD J2000 reference data for display and discovery; calculation eligibility remains a separate, stricter astrometry policy. Behenian membership is an independent source-backed historical classification.
