Omi-2

Its story

Omicron-2 Cancri is a yellow-white F-type star some 150 light-years away, in the modest constellation of the Crab. Cancer is famous for hosting the open cluster Praesepe, the Beehive, one of the closest to the Sun; the omicron stars sit in another region of the crustacean, far from that swarm. Its modest naked-eye light contributes to the faint but ancient outline of one of the zodiac signs.
