35 Arietis
Hot blue starWhat is 35 Arietis
35 Arietis burns with the frank blue of B-type stars, its surface temperature soaring well past ten thousand degrees. Set within the celestial ram at 343 light-years, its initial photons departed while Newton was still publishing his Principia. At magnitude 4.65 it appears as a cool spark to the eye, though it boils at its source.
Where it is and when to see it
35 Arietis lies in the northern celestial hemisphere. It is visible to the naked eye under a dark sky. Its best month of the year is November: the Sun sits at the opposite point of the sky and the star culminates around midnight. How high it climbs above the horizon depends on the latitude you watch from.

The signature wall
Stelvia's sky works like a signature wall: anyone can leave their name and a message on a real star, and that signature goes up on the map for everyone to read. Signing is free.
A signature without a lock can be replaced by someone else's. The lock makes the signature permanent and lets you choose a symbolic name for the star, always shown next to the star's catalogue identifier. How the lock works

A public signature from a real person. The chosen name is a symbolic denomination within Stelvia, with no official standing or IAU recognition: the sky is not for sale and belongs to no one.
