Isn't Procyon a member of the Dipper cluster, like Sirius and Alphecca and all but two of the stars in the Big Dipper in Ursa Major? --Eric Forste (Talk) 03:06, 13 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

See [1]. Procyon does not seem to be a member. Sirius itself is apparently likely not a member. The research cited in the link is from Jeremy King et al., Clemson University, 2003. -- Curps 04:24, 13 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Astrology is not astronomy

The "meanings" of various asters in astrology should be put somewhere else, their place is not in an astronomy article!

MOST findings overstated?

There's some evidence that the MOST results about the pulsations were at the least, overstated - there may have been other instrumental effects contributing to the non-detection. See [2] and [3]. Chaos syndrome 21:31, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
