- ◆ Spica is a spectroscopic binary with tidal distortion; Regulus is a fast-spinning quadruple system.
- ◆ Spica is about 250 light-years away; Regulus is closer at about 79 light-years.
- ◆ Spica's temperature (~25,300 K) is roughly twice that of Regulus (~12,460 K).
- ◆ Hipparchus used Spica observations to discover the precession of the equinoxes around 130 BCE.
