Its story
Coiled within the long body of circumpolar Draco, an orange K-type star shines about 638 light-years away. Its light set out around 1388, as Chaucer was drafting his «Canterbury Tales» in Middle English. Cooler than the Sun, it offers the amber glow of stars that have already walked much of their path.
