Psi
Its story
Psi Andromedae is a yellow G-type giant about a thousand light-years away, at the north-eastern end of the chained princess. Distance is the remarkable thing: the light reaching tonight's eye left the star when the first medieval civilisations still stood. Its spectral class, akin to the Sun's, recalls that beyond that yellow phase awaits the slow destiny of every middling star: to swell and cool.
