From the Stella Series, Gienah is the fifth brightest star in the Cygnus Constellation from Johann Bayer’s 1603 Uranometria atlas of bright stars. 73 light-years from Earth, Gienah is wildly vivid and mesmerizing against the night sky. The markings celebrate the star’s luminosity, 62 times our Sun. The only violet colored print from the Stella series, Gienah celebrates the astonishing electromagnetic spectrum that allows us to gather information based on wavelengths. The galactic location including right ascension and declination is described in astronomical-specific mathematical information.
