Star

The subject of this article is from the Origins update.
The information from this article is up-to-date as of 9 November, 2020.

Stars are found in regions, and circled by moons and planets.

Summary

Stars (or suns) are massive balls of hydrogen gas and plasma, with Copper, Emeril, Indium, or Cadmium too, depending on the star type. They are the centre of all star systems in No Man's Sky. Sean Murray stated that there would be stars of multiple colours, sizes, and spectral classes in the game.

It is unnecessary to create a list of stars in No Man's Sky, as they appear to share the same name as their system. View the star systems category page for a full list of stars and links to their planets.

Speculation

The game will not allow you to fly your Starship into a star.
