Its story
The Dragon coils again across the northern sky and here offers another white class A star. Its light has crossed 255 years: it left when the French encyclopedists were preparing the first illustrated edition of human knowledge and everything —botany, mechanics, crafts— was beginning to fit inside a single set of volumes. The star, indifferent, still fits in no book.
