Its story
72 Piscium is a yellow-white F-type star 178 light-years away in Pisces. It is a touch hotter and more luminous than the Sun, with that crisp tone that defines F-type stars. Its light set off in the heart of the Enlightenment and now falls on modern detectors, in a sky region historically used to mark the start of the astronomical year.
