Its story
61 Geminorum shines about 446 light-years away within the Twins. F-type, slightly hotter than the Sun, its white, steady light arrives after a journey that began when Europe's great navigators had yet to complete their first circuit of the Americas. A middling gleam among the constellations that open the winter season.
