The Australian flag has six stars on it.

The group of five stars forms the constellation of the Southern Cross, a valuable navigation aid to early sailors travelling through the Southern Hemisphere.

There is a sixth star, known as the Federation or Commonwealth star. It has seven points, with six of the points representing the six states of Australia, and the seventh representing Australia's two mainland territories as well as its numerous external (offshore) territories.

Of the six stars on the Australian flag, five have seven points. The Commonwealth Star, also known as the federation Star, has seven points, one representing each state and one representing all of the territories (mainland and external).

On the representation of the Southern Cross, the four main stars each have seven points. It is only the smallest star which has 5 points.

Five of the six. The five stars on the right are the Southern Cross, visible everywhere in Australia. The large star under the Union Jack is the "Commonwealth Star", and does not represent a star in the heavens.
