Its story

In the vast constellation of Cetus shines an orange giant some 347 light-years away. Its light set out around 1679, in the age of Newton, Leibniz and Huygens, when European science was rewriting the rules of the cosmos. Cooler than the Sun, its amber tone evokes a long sunset on the dark side of the winter sky.
