Its story

In Taurus shines a yellow giant some 361 light-years away. Its light set out around 1665, when Newton, retreated during the plague, was forging the laws that would reorder the universe. It shares with the Sun a serene golden hue, yet after eons of burning it has begun to swell —a future image of how our own star will age between the horns of another sky.
