Its story
A calm K-type orange tucked into the northern reach of Cepheus, this giant sends its light from 951 light-years. The photon entering tonight departed around 1075, when Toledo had just been reconquered by Alfonso VI and was becoming a cultural bridge between Arabic and Latin. It has travelled a thousand years for nothing and for everything.
