Hot blue starIts story
In the slice of Lyra, a hot B-class star shines from 358 light-years away with the stern blue of young stars. The light crossing the sky tonight broke loose around 1668, when Newton was building his first reflecting telescope and Molière premiered «The Miser» in Paris. A small blue ember in the shadow of Vega.
