... Colours of stars and galaxies hold information on intrinsic and extrinsic parameters, such as stellar temperatures and galaxy populations, selective absorption and colour changes due different dust contents and inclination angles of galaxies, as well as galaxy redshifts and evolution. ... The colour magnitude diagram of 65000 galaxies to which all above-mentioned quantities and others contribute can only be explained by comparison with simulations. ... Colours are also of technical help. ...

... We performed photometry on both the original and deconvolved images of NGC 6352. ... Aperture photometry was performed on all stars identified in the deconvolved master frames with aperture radii of 4 and 5 pixels for the F555W and F785LP images respectively. ... Fig. 2 indicates that the scatter about the mean faint star sequence is much smaller for the aperture photometry of the deconvolved images than for the PSF fits to the original images. ...

Two major reasons: the number of stars isn't really seven (it's many more), and they all have different brightnesses, so that you see more or fewer of them depending on viewing conditions. The brightness of stars is measured on the magnitude scale, where the most prominent stars in the sky are around 1st magnitude, and the faintest you can see with your eye are about 6th. ... I think this makes it quite likely that the list will be truncated at Taygeta, giving six visible stars. ...
