Its story
An orange ember in Lepus, the hare forever fleeing beneath Orion's feet. Her 233-year-old light left the star while Voltaire was publishing «Candide» and Europe was entering the Age of Enlightenment. Type K stars like this one burn cooler than the Sun, their copper hues painting an atmosphere of iron and titanium.
