Zaniah
Eta
Its story
Zaniah belongs to Virgo, the great constellation of the celestial maiden, its name from the Arabic «al-zāwiyah», «the corner» or «the angle». A white A-class star roughly 265 light-years away, it is part of the quiet network of stars that traces the folds of the figure's robe. The light arriving this night began its journey when Newton was publishing the Principia in London.
