BETA DOR (Beta Doradus). Among the most important of all stars are the Cepheid variables, named after the prototype, Delta Cephei. Many of them dot the naked- eye starry sky, their number including Eta Aquilae, Zeta Geminorum (Mekbuda), even Polaris, the brightest of them (though Polaris’s variations are too small to be witnessed by eye).
