Its story
In Lacerta, the little lizard of the northern sky, glows a white A-type star about 186 light-years away. Its light began its journey around 1840, when William Henry Fox Talbot was refining the calotype and photography was learning to fix light. Hotter than the Sun, its bluish-white tone belongs to stars still in their full youth.
