Consider a relatively nearby, single star, that is, a star that is not a member of a binary system and has no known orbiting planets. Listed below are a few properties of this star. Classify each property as either something that we can observe or measure directly (with the aid of a telescope and instruments such as cameras or spectrographs) or something that we must infer indirectly (and hence is correct only if all of our assumptions are correct).-color

-parallax angle-radius

-luminosity

-mass-spectral type

-apparent brightness-surface temperature
