Its story
In the small Southern Crown, a white A-class star shines from a little over four hundred light years away. The light reaching us today left its surface around 1615, while Cervantes was publishing the second part of Don Quixote and Galileo was defending his observations of Jupiter. A discreet constellation tucked beneath Sagittarius, where the star takes part in a small bouquet of young suns born from the same environment.
