Arcturus
The brightest star in the northern celestial hemisphere/Stars
Arcturus is a red giant in the constellation Bootes and the brightest star in the northern sky. It is about 25 times the diameter of the Sun but only slightly more massive, having puffed up as it aged. Arcturus is barreling through space at an unusual angle to most nearby stars, suggesting it may be an interloper from another part of the galaxy entirely.
