Its story
Libertas is one of the modern names assigned by the IAU in a public campaign to baptise stars with known planets: its own orbits this orange giant in Aquila. At 184 light-years, its golden light carries the trace of a distant planetary system, a quiet reminder that almost every visible star guards worlds that humanity is only beginning to count.
