Its story
39 Tauri is a close sister of the Sun: a type-G star just 55 light-years away, one of the most intimate distances in this batch. It shares spectrum and temperature with the body that lights our days, a possibility of a yellow mirror in the distance. The light reaching a human eye tonight set out when the Beatles were still rehearsing in Liverpool.
