Del-1
Its story
Delta-1 Canis Minoris lies some 760 light-years away —a notable depth for a star still visible to the naked eye. A yellow-white F-type star, bright and luminous, it is in fact a giant: its faint appearance hides the true energy it releases. It belongs to Canis Minor, the small companion of Sirius's Canis Major, dominated by the dazzling Procyon.
