Variable starIts story
47 Capricorni is an M-type variable red giant nearly 1,190 light-years away, one of the most distant stars in its constellation still reachable by the naked eye. Its slow pulsations make the brightness throb on scales of months, a common trait in evolved giants. The light we see today set out around the dawn of the 9th century.
