Variable starIts story
γ Herculis sits along the hero's outline some 193 light-years away, a white A-type star whose light vibrates faintly —a subtle variability typical of Delta Scuti pulsators—. Hercules hangs head-down across the northern summer sky, and this giant marks the western edge of his silhouette.
