Its story
Epsilon Microscopii is the second brightest star of its small constellation —a white A1 main-sequence star with twice the Sun's mass, twice its radius, and nearly 36 times its luminosity. Its surface reaches 9,126 K and its equator spins at 127 km per second. At 182 light-years, it is one of the few firm anchors in the muted outline of the Microscope.
