Variable star

Its story

31 Camelopardalis is an A-type variable star shining about four hundred and sixty-nine light-years away, inside the vast and silent Giraffe. Its white light shifts in tones invisible to the naked eye —inner pulsations or surface effects that only careful monitoring can reveal. A discreet star in a discreet constellation, faithful to a heartbeat of its own.
