Its story
An orange K-type giant in Libra, the only zodiacal constellation representing an inanimate object rather than a living being. Its light set out around 1741, while Antonio Vivaldi was living his final months in Vienna after composing The Four Seasons. K-type stars display a warm, honey-coloured glow that invites slow, patient contemplation, far from the paler twinkle of white stars.
