Its story

In the little Crater, some 481 light-years away, a serene orange star pours its light like slow wine. That light departed when the Medici were ruling Florence and Michelangelo was painting the vault of the Sistine Chapel. Five centuries later, the cup still tilts over the night and the orange ember still spills out, in no hurry.
