Its story
A white A-type light beats in northern Camelopardalis at 199 light years from Earth. It set out when Mozart was rehearsing his last symphonies and the French Revolution had not yet ignited. Larger and hotter than the Sun, it shines with a brilliance several times greater than our own daytime star.
