[QUOTE="gunhed508, post: 5450659, member: 208900"] Thank you for the equation and the great link - looks like it has a nice table there for the common spectral classes. I noticed there's a numeric range that can follow afterwards: 0 being hottest, and 9 the coolest. Is this a linear correlation? For example, for a G class star, the range is 5200-6000. Should I expect a G5 to be something like 5644 K? It's unfortunate that I'm only seeing useful data for Main Sequence stars. As for the oddballs - this project has a couple of goals: First, to use as much hard-core science as I can. Second, to present a "journey through the stars," where the occasional rare, oddball star is actually quite desireable. Who wouldn't want to behold the glory of a red supergiant? [/QUOTE]
