Its story

In Gemini glows an orange giant 372 light-years away, a calm ember between the celestial twins. Its light began its journey as Vermeer was painting «Girl with a Pearl Earring» and Dutch workshops were inventing a new way of seeing light. A class-K sun, already mature in its evolution, it offers a warm and unhurried glow —quite unlike the blue-white fire of the younger stars nearby.
