Its story
An orange K-type giant in Draco, with the temperate warmth of embers still glowing at dawn. Its light took 247 years to reach us: the journey began in 1779, while John Paul Jones's fleet fought under a North Sea moon. Under clear skies it shows as a warm spark set within the long winding body of the circumpolar dragon.
