A-type main-sequence star

An A-type main-sequence star (A) or A dwarf star is a main-sequence (hydrogen burning) star of spectral type A and luminosity class (five). 2 Camelopardalis and a-type main-sequence star are a-type main-sequence stars.

See 2 Camelopardalis and A-type main-sequence star

Apparent magnitude

Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star or other astronomical object.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Apparent magnitude

Camelopardalis

Camelopardalis is a large but faint constellation of the northern sky representing a giraffe.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Camelopardalis

Circumpolar star

A circumpolar star is a star that, as viewed from a given latitude on Earth, never sets below the horizon due to its apparent proximity to one of the celestial poles.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Circumpolar star

Epoch (astronomy)

In astronomy, an epoch or reference epoch is a moment in time used as a reference point for some time-varying astronomical quantity.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Epoch (astronomy)

Orbital eccentricity

In astrodynamics, the orbital eccentricity of an astronomical object is a dimensionless parameter that determines the amount by which its orbit around another body deviates from a perfect circle.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Orbital eccentricity

Orbital period

The orbital period (also revolution period) is the amount of time a given astronomical object takes to complete one orbit around another object.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Orbital period

Perseus (constellation)

Perseus is a constellation in the northern sky, named after the Greek mythological hero Perseus.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Perseus (constellation)

Radial velocity

The radial velocity or line-of-sight velocity of a target with respect to an observer is the rate of change of the vector displacement between the two points.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Radial velocity

Star system

A star system or stellar system is a small number of stars that orbit each other, bound by gravitational attraction.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Star system

Stellar classification

In astronomy, stellar classification is the classification of stars based on their spectral characteristics.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Stellar classification

Stellar parallax

Stellar parallax is the apparent shift of position (parallax) of any nearby star (or other object) against the background of distant stars.

See 2 Camelopardalis and Stellar parallax
