About Beta Ceti
Beta Ceti, also named Diphda, is the brightest star in the constellation of Cetus. Although designated 'beta', it is actually brighter than the 'alpha' star in the constellation. This orange giant is easy to identify due to its location in an otherwise dark section of the celestial sphere.
