Nu
Its story
Nu Serpentis shines at two hundred light-years within the Serpent's body, that constellation split into two halves and held by the healer Ophiuchus. It is a white A-type star, young and luminous, set in Serpens Caput —the reptile's head. Its cold light crosses the air and settles into one of the few constellations in the sky that mythology designated as divided.
