Cool red starIts story
Gudja is a cool red giant inside the constellation Serpens, 382 light-years away. Its reddish tone —proof that its atmosphere barely exceeds 3,500 degrees— is the colour in which stars that have run most of their lives slowly fade. The name comes from Australian Aboriginal traditions and preserves in the modern sky an oral memory that appears in no classical European almanac.
