After a bit of googling I will go for "The Star" as the B1620-26 refers to the star and the B1620-26b refers to "The Planet" and B1620-26c refered to something else. So the next puzzle for my guess THE STAR :D

Whoops mabye even THE "STARISIS" :shock: :shock: :D

The goddess Serket was the principal divine personification of the scorpion and was usually depicted with a scorpion perched on her head. She was a protector goddess, perhaps best known to the public at large as one of the four goddesses who's golden statues surrounded the sarcophagus of Tutankhaman in his tomb. Her full name, Serket hetyt itself means "she who causes the throat to breath", referring to the effects of a scorpion sting. However, there were other gods and goddesses also associated with the scorpion. One of the most famous is Isis, who is said to have been protected from her enemies by seven scorpions.
