Eta
Its story
Eta Crateris glimmers 252 light-years away within Crater, the celestial cup that Greek myth tied to Apollo's raven. A white A-type star, it is a quiet member of a constellation built almost entirely from faint magnitudes, barely visible beneath city skies. Its position among the few stars of the bowl makes it an essential piece of the cup's outline.
