Lam

Its story

Lambda Andromedae is a variable yellow giant at 86 light-years, set on the outline of the chained princess. It belongs to the RS Canum Venaticorum family: a starspot-covered surface that makes its light fluctuate in a slow rotational cycle, like an aged, restless Sun. Close enough to us that even its faint flicker reaches our instruments laden with stellar detail, a small breathing surface measured patiently across decades of observation.
