Why are Cepheid variables important?
 
  A) Cepheid variables are stars that vary in brightness because they harbor a black hole. Therefore, they provide direct evidence for black holes.
  B) Cepheids variables are supermassive stars that are on the verge of becoming supernovae. Therefore they allow us to choose candidates to watch if we hope to observe a supernova.
  C) Cepheids variables are a type of irregular galaxy, much more common in the early universe. Therefore they help to understand how galaxies formed.
  D) Cepheids variables are pulsating stars whose pulsation periods are directly related to their true luminosities. Therefore they can be used as distance indicators.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
