Its story
Virgo, great zodiacal constellation, holds this orange K-type star some three hundred and eight light years away. Its light departed around the years when a young Mozart was composing his first operas and the Enlightenment reached its maturity. It arrives now with the quiet warmth proper to K-type stars, without stridency.
