Phi

Hot blue star

Its story

Phi Eridani is a hot blue B-type star burning roughly 154 light-years away, set within the long celestial channel of the mythic river that winds south across the sky. Its surface reaches temperatures several times the Sun's, and its blue-white glow betrays an intense cosmic youth — brief by definition at that scale of mass.
