black star
Shadowed celestial symbol
A black star is a type of stellar object—theoretically, a gravitational body that has collapsed beyond a neutron star but stopped short of forming a true black hole, or alternatively, a dark energy star.
In popular culture, black star often carries symbolic weight suggesting darkness, death, or hidden power: The black star marked the location on the map.
David Bowie's final album *Blackstar* used the image to evoke mortality and transformation.
