The Drazi star

In the episode "Movements of fire and shadow" you can see that the Drazi sun is green, but when you see the surface of the Drazi homeworld the sunlight is yellow. Is the sun green or yellow?
Maybe there´s something wrong with my eyes.

Maybe atmospheric refraction or something?

Oh, and according to NASA there are no green stars - although green is the commonest colour in the known galaxy (due to a lot of yellow and blue stars).

If there are no green stars, then we have no use for the sun_green.pcx file.

And once again U.S.A's coverment and Nasa lies (no there aren't any UFO's. Oh? Well what that is then?), How in world Nasa would know that thing? Human's can't see outside our universe. But science says that there are only three kind of stars: Yellow, Blue & Red (Red giant and blue dwarf).

If I remember correctly, the blue colour is not restricted to dwarf stars only. There are blue supergiants as well.

Add to that red, brown and white dwarf stars. You can have yellow or white medium sized stars.

The green star effect may be nothing more than particulate matter between the point of reference and the star itself. Or it may be a researching error

There are no green stars. Dwarf or otherwise. They just don't exist.

Many years ago ewerybody knew, that the Earth was flat...

Not so many years ago ewerybody knew, that the Earth was the center of the universe...

So now ewerybody knows that there are absolutley no green stars whatsoewer, anywhere...

Is there a pattern here...

False, even the Greeks knew the world was round due to measurements done by Egyptians, Greeks, you name it. The debate was the size of the world, and baby Columbus was wrong

Not so many years ago ewerybody knew, that the Earth was the center of the universe...
This on the other hand is definately true.

It´s all a matter of reference systems. You can also say the solar system moves around the earth, you only get ugly orbits for the rest of the galaxy.

I've never heard about green stars being impossible.. considering green is between yellow and blue on the electromagnetic spectrum, I find green stars likely, if yellow and blue ones are possible.
