Puzzle Description:
The Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram
#1: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jul 4, 2018 [SPOILER]
The H-R diagram is a a graph of stars' inherent brightnesses versus their temperatures (or colors). Main sequence stars are along the s shaped diagonal curve, red giants in the upper right corner, and white dwarfs in the lower left.#2: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 4, 2018
I have a puzzle out right now called "Stripes" so I thought since today is American independence day, I would make a puzzle about stars.

Now comes the anticipation of the time when I can slip this bit of knowledge into the conversation. Thanks Brian#4: Ga Hendrick (GaHendrick) on Jul 5, 2018

Ours (Sol) is yellow, right?#7: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jul 5, 2018 [SPOILER]
Yes. It sits there just a bit below and to the right of the middle of the main sequence. A truly average star.#8: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Jul 6, 2018 [SPOILER]
Thank you, Brian. It's my birthday, so I especially love that you created "Stripes" and "Stars" for the 4th of July this year!#9: BRASH ATAOM (BRASHatAOM) on Jul 3, 2022
Oh, and here I was hoping,on the eve of another Independence Day, that you might have figured out an easy way to create at least an adequate semblance of a five-pointed star on an x-y grid....#10: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Jul 5, 2022
Happy nearly birthday JoDeen!#11: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Apr 27, 2023
