Parumleo: the pale star of Pisces

pale · Pisces · WASP-32

Parumleo is a pale star in the constellation Pisces, one of the few thousand stars bright enough to carry an officially recognised name. It rewards a pair of binoculars on a clear night.

Most stars in the sky are anonymous points of light. Parumleo is not — it has held a name across generations of sky-watchers, which makes it a rare thing to attach a name of your own to.
