Its story

In Perseus shines a yellow star at 380 light-years. Its light departed around 1646, when the Thirty Years' War was ending and Europe was redrawing its borders after a century of religious conflict. It is a G class star like the Sun, though far more distant and probably in a more advanced phase of its life. Its golden tone, similar to the Sun at dawn, arrives after a journey long enough to envelop the entire Spanish Early Modern era.
