Its story
41 Aurigae shines white about 334 light-years away, within the figure of the Charioteer, that pentagon guarding the goat Capella. Its A spectrum reveals a surface close to ten thousand degrees, almost twice the Sun s temperature. The light crossing the human eye tonight broke free in the heart of the Baroque era, when Versailles was being raised.
