Its story
In Andromeda, the princess chained at the edge of the autumn sky, shines an orange K-type star, cooler than the Sun and of pale gold. Its light began the journey some 341 years ago, when Newton was publishing the Principia and rewriting the rules of the universe with a single mathematical gesture. It arrives now restful and warm, faithful to the serene character of orange suns.
