Cool red starIts story
In Vulpecula, the small celestial fox, lives a cool red star, an M-class giant with a quiet surface 613 light-years away. Its light departed in the fifteenth century, while Gutenberg was printing his Bible in Mainz and Europe was entering the age of mechanised words. It arrives today with the muted red of things that have endured.
