Its story

In the coils of Draco shines a yellow sun, a G-type star almost neighbouring at 57 light-years whose light set out in the late 1960s. When it left its atmosphere, humans were stepping onto the Moon for the first time. Very similar to our Sun in size and temperament, it might be called almost a close sister —a familiar bonfire lost among the winding curves of the longest constellation of the northern hemisphere.
