... Stars . ... Cepheid variable stars have been known since the 18th century. ... Regularly brightening to a peak over days, weeks or months before fading these variable stars were remarkable curiosities to astronomers in past centuries.ˆà The term Cepheid is taken from the star Delta Cephei in the constellation of Cepheus, which was identified as variableˆà in 1784 by the teenaged prodigy John Goodricke (1764-96). ...
