Eta
Its story
Eta Coronae Borealis is a remarkable binary system just 58 light-years away: two yellow stars almost identical to the Sun orbit each other in a little over forty years, so close together that only larger telescopes can split them. One of the few accessible pairs of true solar twins: two suns turning a slow waltz inside the diadem of the Northern Crown.
