Currently, there are many contents related to celestial bodies in the world. However, many of the functions realized there are introduced in units of constellations, and there are not many that introduce information about each star. In previous research, Names of stars and constellations were presented using the method of reading aloud with voice, but color and brightness of the stars were not presented. Therefore, in this research, we developed a system that can quickly present information of the color and brightness of stars by associating them with pitches and volumes of sounds. In the evaluation experiment, we asked participants to solve the problem while using this system and the voice reading system, and verified the speed and accuracy of grasping the information of each system.
