Its story
In the bow of Sagittarius shines a yellow-white F-type star about 119 light-years away. Its light set out around 1907, the year Picasso painted Les Demoiselles d'Avignon and chopped open the doors of Cubism. Hotter and whiter than the Sun, it vibrates with a clean timbre amid the dense clouds that hide the center of the Milky Way.
