Star Log (Start Here)

Welcome to this mini star log. I should probably give a whole inspirational speech on why I did this project but you probably wouldn't read it anyway so I'll make it quick. Below is a list of 15 of the countless number of stars that I, either, knew from before this unit or choose randomly because the name sounded cool. Each star is a link that will take you to a data table of the basic information that one might want or need to know about stars. So...stop reading my intro a click away.
