Its story

It shines in Corona Australis, the delicate and little-known diadem of the southern sky. A yellow G-type star, similar to the Sun in colour and temperament, its light took some 300 years to reach us: it set out in the early 18th century, when Bach was composing his first harpsichord concertos in Leipzig. A small golden gem set into a crown almost invisible to the naked eye.
