Iot
Its story
Iota Coronae Borealis is a white star about 312 light-years away, set into the curved diadem of the Northern Crown. That small constellation, a perfect semicircle between Boötes and Hercules, looks drawn with a compass. Iota is one of the points that hold the arc —a quiet brightness that lends geometric continuity to the tale of Ariadne and her gifted crown.
