Its story
In the modest Monoceros shines a yellow-white star about 748 light-years away. The light reaching us today set out when Marco Polo was crossing the Mongol courts and Europe was raising its medieval universities. Hotter and brighter than the Sun, it radiates a warm whiteness reminiscent of polished ivory glowing in the dark.
