Cool red starIts story
52 Geminorum is an M-type red giant 300 light-years away, a cool surface burning in deep tones at the feet of the Twins. The constellation, crossed each year by the Sun during the northern summer solstice, holds Castor and Pollux as famous neighbours. This aged giant shines in silence, overshadowed by stars with more publicity.
