Its story
Yellow-white in Orion, surprisingly close at 122 light years. The light entering the window tonight took leave around 1903, just as the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk were making the first controlled powered flight in history. A temperate F-class star, in between the Sun and the white A's: a serene point among the great blue embers of the constellation.
