Ome

Its story

Omega Eridani is a white A-type star along the long course of the celestial river, the constellation that meanders from Orion's foot to the southernmost latitudes. It shines with a clean, unshaded light, the kind characteristic of stars that have not yet altered the composition of their surfaces. Its light began the journey toward us 235 years ago, when Europe still spoke of the enlightened courts of the eighteenth century.
