Rho-3

Its story

Rho-3 Eridani is a white A-type star 136 light-years away, one of the many pearls strung along the winding course of the celestial River — the longest constellation in the sky, spilling from Orion all the way to the southern horizon. Its spectral class lends it a clean, almost bluish brightness, proper to stars in mid-maturity, before age tints them orange.
