GAMMA CYGNI


'Gamma Cygni' (γ Cyg / γ Cygni) is a star in the constellation Cygnus. It also has the traditional name 'Sadr' (also spelled 'Sadir' or 'Sador').
The traditional name comes from the Arabic word 'صدر' ''şadr'', "chest", the same word which gave rise to the star Schedar (Alpha Cassiopeiae).
This star is surrounded by a diffuse nebula called
IC1318, or the ''Gamma Cygni region''.
