Its story

It shines in Eridanus, the celestial river that winds from Orion's feet down into the southern skies. An orange K-type star, cooler and more golden than the Sun, glowing with a warm, ancient light. Its light set out some 319 years ago, when the Bach brothers were forming a musical dynasty destined to change the history of Europe. An amber point suspended in the dark waters of the great celestial river.
