Its story

A white A-type star in Lupus, young and clean, shining with the serene coolness of polished marble. Its light set out around 1825, when the first public passenger railway opened between Stockton and Darlington, marking the start of the modern industrial era. A-type stars are vigorous bodies whose blue-white luminosity stands out sharply even amid the cosmic dust that tints their neighbours.
