ORBITAL SYNCHRONY AND VARIABLE STAR BRIGHTNESS

Orbital Synchrony and Variable Star Brightness

When a satellite achieves orbital synchrony with its parent star, a fascinating phenomenon can occur in the realm of variable stars. This synchronization leads to consistent illumination patterns, where the star's brightness varies in a manner directly linked to the angular alignment. As a result, astronomers can detect these changes accurately, pr
