Variable starIts story
A blue B-class star pulses in the Stern with the slow breath of massive variables. Its light reaches us from more than sixteen hundred years ago, departing when the Western Roman Empire was entering its final convulsions. Far hotter and brighter than the Sun, it writes across the southern sky the violent, beautiful language of young stars.
