Kap-2
Its story
Kappa2 Sculptoris is an orange K-type giant some 794 light-years away inside Sculptor, a discreet southern constellation that contains the south galactic pole. Its warm light crosses a sky region nearly empty of bright stars, offering in its modesty one of the few chromatic points visible in that quarter of the firmament.
