Its story
In Ursa Major, that great dipper forever turned toward the north, shines an orange giant, warm and serene. Its light set out around 1284, when the Pied Piper of Hamelin, according to legend, led the village children away and left his mark on German folk memory. Cooler and far larger than the Sun, it glows with the slow gold of mature stars.
