Name meaning

[edit]

It would be great to add information on the meaning and origin of the name "Kang" (I couldn't find any). Yaroslav Nikitenko (talk) 13:16, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See the Chinese name, not strictly for this one star but for an asterism of which it is the determining star. Lithopsian (talk) 16:21, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I actually found this in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_proper_names_of_stars, but then I could notice it in this article as well. Please close this discussion (I don't know how to do that). Yaroslav Nikitenko (talk) 18:42, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
