Cool red starIts story
In Ursa Major shines a red star at 548 light-years. Its light began its journey around 1478, when the Spanish Inquisition was being established and Lorenzo de Medici was surviving the Pazzi conspiracy in Florence. It is a cool class M, with a surface below 4,000 K, and owes its visibility to a considerable size. Ursa Major thus brings together, alongside bright white stars, this discreet yet ancient reddish beacon.
