Gam

Its story

Gamma Piscium is one of the stars that traces the famous Western Circlet of Pisces, that small polygon of faint suns nestled below the Great Square of Pegasus. It is a yellow G-type giant some 138 light-years away, an old traveler that has exhausted the hydrogen in its core and now drifts through stellar maturity. Its soft, steady glow is one of the knots in the mythological cord that binds the two fish.
