What is Sardina? What it means to an astrophysicist?

Question

It is some newly discovered astronomical object, a star perhaps?

Answer 1

I've never heard of it. Perhaps it is a recently discovered asteroid. Stars are not named - the only stars that have names (as opposed to numerical designations) are the ones that were named hundreds if not thousands of years ago (like Sirius, Polaris, Pollux, Rigel, etc.)

Answer 2

Sardinia is an island off of mainland Italy. I have been there it is beautiful.
