Aldulfin
Eps
Hot blue starIts story
Aldulfin, epsilon Delphini, shines with the hot blue characteristic of young, massive stars. Her name comes from an Arabic root meaning 'the dolphin', a baptismal redundancy nonetheless adopted by the International Astronomical Union in a recent resolution. At 330 light-years she looks small, yet her luminosity vastly exceeds the Sun's.
