Hot blue star

Its story

Epsilon Piscis Austrini is a hot blue B-type star some 487 light-years away, sharing the same southern figure that hosts the celebrated Fomalhaut. Its blue-white light, modest to the unaided eye beside its more famous neighbour, nonetheless reveals a star far hotter and more energetic than the Sun.
