Pi-1
Cool red starIts story
Pi-1 Hydri is a red M-type giant at more than seven hundred and seventy light-years in the Male Water Snake, that small southern serpent added to the sky by Dutch navigators near the south pole. Its deep reddish tone betrays a vast, cool atmosphere already in the final phases of its evolution. A slow ember in a corner of the sky where almost no other legends touch it.
