Double Star by Robert A. Heinlein (Panther, 1969 edition).
Double Star, "Interplanetary War as Worlds Collide" -- Stephen Fabian box art for Marc W Miller's board game of conflict between Chinese and Islamic colonists across planets in a binary star system (GDW, 1979).
Stephen Fabian passed away in May of 2025 at age 95. An acclaimed self-taught fan artist, he turned professional in 1974 at age 44 after being laid off from his engineering job. He illustrated many sci-fi and fantasy books and magazines, including a number for Conan and other Robert Howard characters. After contributing art for GDW's sci-fi board games he illustrated D&D supplements for TSR in the late 1980s through early 90s, especially in the Ravenloft setting. His work often is immediately recognizable by his use of bold black shadows and his frequent use of distinctive art nouveau borders.
Albireo, β Cygni // Romain Dechamps
Albireo is a star system about 360-400 light years from Earth. It is a very clear double system. The bright yellow star is Albireo A, and is in fact a triple star system, while the dimmer blue star is Albireo B.
The origin of the name is uncertain. Despite the Arabic sounding name, it likely comes from a mistranslation of the Greek text, the Almagest: "...et dicitur eurisim quasi redolens ut lilium ab ireo".
The author refers to the plant Erysimum, which is called irio in Latin, but the proper ablative case would be irione. Perhaps it was a mistake?
