Template talk:StarColor

Notes (2015)

I highly recommend rather than this:

• Type M stars: Red
• Type K stars: Orange
• Type G stars: Yellow-White
• Type F stars: White
• Type A stars: White
• Type B stars: Blue-White
• Type O stars: Blue

...to go with this:

Stellar Classification (Color)

Star Type	Conventional Color	TJonesLo Color
Type O	Blue	Blue
Type B	Blue-White	Blue-White
Type A	White	White
Type F	Yellow-White	White
Type G	Yellow	Yellow-White
Type K	Orange	Orange
Type M	Red	Red

This corresponds with conventional typing in the real world: Stellar Classification at Wikipedia

Thanks.

I just picked the first site google provided with the list. There is some debate about how to describe the colors of the stars, based upon different descriptions. I'll update the template to use the wikipedia ones unless I get better information.

No worries. There are multiple formats, but that is probably the most common.
