This template is part of a group of templates that are used to display astronomical information related to a specific star or stellar system. The {{Starbox begin}} template is always first in the list. It can be used as follows:

 {{Starbox observe |
   epoch=Equinox of coordinates |
   constell=Constellation name |
   ra=Right Ascension |
   dec=Declination |
   appmag_v=Apparent magnitude (Johnson-Cousins V system) }}

Use of the {{RA}} template is recommended for formatting the right ascension, and the {{DEC}} template for formatting the declination. If the apparent magnitude is not known, it may be omitted, and the apparent magnitude will then be omitted from the infobox.

For double star systems where right ascension and declination measurements are available for both components, {{Starbox observe 2s}} may be used.

{{Starbox observe}} can be preceded or followed by other Starbox templates:

• {{Starbox image}}
• {{Starbox character}}
• {{Starbox astrometry}}
• {{Starbox visbin}}
• {{Starbox detail}}
• {{Starbox catalog}}
• {{Starbox reference}}

The list should then be closed with a {{Starbox end}} template.
