Its story
More than three hundred light years are needed for its yellow light to reach us from Scutum, the small baroque shield constellation. The photon arriving today departed when Newton was finishing his Principia and celestial mechanics was finding its equations. It belongs to type G, the same spectral family as the Sun, though more evolved and luminous.
