List of stars in Vela

This is the list of notable stars in the constellation Vela, sorted by decreasing brightness.
This constellation's Bayer designations were given while it was still considered part of the constellation of Argo Navis. After Argo Navis was broken up into Carina, Vela, and Puppis, these Greek-letter designations were kept, so that Vela does not have a full complement of Greek-letter designations. For example, since Argo Navis's alpha star went to Carina, there is no Alpha Velorum.
