• The Narrabri Stellar Intensity Interferometer was the first astronomical instrument to measure the diameters of a large number of stars at visible wavelengths.
• Stellar aberration is an astronomical phenomenon defined as an apparent motion of the heavenly bodies due to a combination of the motion of the Earth and the finite velocity of light.
• A stellar association is a very loose star cluster, looser than both open clusters and globular clusters.
• Stellar astronomy is the study of stars and the phenomena exhibited by the various forms/developmental stages of stars. Timeline of stellar astronomy
• Stellar atmosphere. Different stars have different atmospheres.
• A stellar black hole is a black hole formed by the collapse of a massive star at the end of its lifetime.
• Stellar cartography. In astronomy, a term used to refer to the mapping of stars, nebula, and other interstellar phonomena.
• Stellar classification is a classification of stars based initially on photospheric temperature and its associated spectral characteristics, and subsequenly refined in terms of other characteristics.
• Stellar dynamics is the branch of astrophysics which describes in a statistical way the collective motions of stars subject to their mutual gravity.
• A stellar engine is a hypothetical propulsion device that employs a significant part of a star's radiation to change the star's velocity (literally: an engine for a star).
• Stellar evolution is the sequence of changes that a star undergoes during its lifetime, the millions or billions of years during which it emits light and heat.
• Stellar Loussier is a fictional character in the anime series Gundam SEED Destiny.
• Stellar magnitude. The apparent magnitude (m) of a star, is a measure of its apparent brightness; that is, the amount of light received from the star.
• Stellar near-collision
• Stellar nucleosynthesis is the collective term for the nuclear reactions taking place in stars to build the nuclei of the heavier elements.
• Stellar parallax is the change of angular position of two stars relative to each other as seen from earth, due to the different orbital positions of the Earth.
• Stellar population. Stars can be grouped into two general types called Population I and Population II.
• Stellar spectra/Stellar spectroscopy
• Stellar Stone LLC, a Russian game developer.
• Stellar structure
• Stellar system is a grouping of one or more stars, with (sometimes) non-stellar planetary systems, having a common centre of gravity.
• Stellar wind. A solar wind is a stream of charged particles (i.e., a plasma) which are ejected from the upper atmosphere of a star.
• The Combination of Stellar Influences is a significant astrological reference and research text.
