The twin stars of Algol are also known as "Beta Persei." Algol is a well-known eclipsing binary star system in the constellation Perseus, consisting of two main stars that periodically eclipse one another, leading to variations in brightness. This variability has earned it the nickname "the Demon Star" due to its association with the mythological figure of Medusa.
