Variable star

Its story

13 Andromedae is a variable blue-white B-type star 300 light-years away in the autumn sky's chained princess. It joins the energy of hot atmospheres with the restlessness of subtle pulsations that only precision photometry can uncover. It glows near the great galaxy M31, that cosmic sister any pair of binoculars can find among the stars of Andromeda.
