WHAT DOES VARIABLE TYPE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Variable star

A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth fluctuates. This variation may be caused by a change in emitted light or by something partly blocking the light, so variable stars are classified as either: ▪ Intrinsic variables, whose luminosity actually changes; for example, because the star periodically swells and shrinks. ▪ Extrinsic variables, whose apparent changes in brightness are due to changes in the amount of their light that can reach Earth; for example, because the star has an orbiting companion that sometimes eclipses it. Many, possibly most, stars have at least some variation in luminosity: the energy output of our Sun, for example, varies by about 0.1% over an 11 year solar cycle. A photogenic variable star, Eta Carinae, embedded in the Carina Nebula.
