Summary
| Description |
English: Seven Golden Stars is an Australian flag that includes the stars of the Southern Cross, the Commonwealth Star and the sun. The sun is derived from the Aboriginal flag, and replaces the Union Jack in the canton of the Australian National Flag. The Australian Coat of Arms is placed in the fly of the flag with a stylised Commonwealth Star and torse. This would be a state flag for the Commonwealth of Australia.
The flag ratio is 2:3 with the axis of the Southern Cross one third along the length. The stars in this design are the same size and shape as for the Australian National Flag. The Commonwealth Star is aligned with the Beta Crucis and Delta Crucis of the Southern Cross (with the three stars being on the same line with Delta Crucis at the midpoint.) The Commonwealth Star is equidistant from the top and right edges of the flag. The centre of the sun is at a right angle to Beta Crucis and Gamma Crucis. The stars in this Australian flag are thus all aligned symmetrically. This symmetry is a major feature of this flag design. While the sun is depicted as a gold circle, the sun is also a star. Hence the name for this series of flags - seven golden stars. The flag was designed by Robert Vose. (Note: For legal reasons the actual Arms are covered in grey and are not displayed on this design. Only the supporting elements are shown.) The design was lodged with IP Australia on 7/02/2005. It is published online at http://becrux.net/seven-golden-stars |
