It's a white dwarf, the dense remnant of a sun-like star that has already died, cataloged as WDJ 1330 plus 6435.
L

It sits about 280 light years away in the constellation Draco.
L

A note on distance because the numbers wander a little in the coverage.
L
6:45Lance MartinHOST
Reports place WDJ 1330 plus 6435 at about 280 light years away, with some outlets sighting 284, and a broader range that can stretch higher.
L
6:58Lance MartinHOST
It lies in Draco.

Treat the exact figure as approximate.

But now, researchers at the University of Warwick have identified a rather extraordinary exception.
D
28:31DrewHOST
Its romantic name is WDJ13306435, and it's a white dwarf approximately 280 light-years away in the constellation Draco.
D
28:45DrewHOST
A white dwarf is the dense leftover core of a star that has exhausted its nuclear fuel.
D
28:52DrewHOST
In this case, the star has accumulated rocky debris from its former planetary system, contaminating its atmosphere with elements including calcium, lithium, and sodium.

I know.
A
26:26Alya Al NuaimiHOST
Right, so that Green Star is sitting about 284 light years away from Earth, tucked inside the constellation Draco, which is the dragon constellation, and here's how it got its color.
A
26:36Alya Al NuaimiHOST
This is a bit...
A
26:37Alya Al NuaimiHOST
Clever, to be honest.

What were dragons like in Shakespeare's lifetime?
C
8:58Cassidy CashHOST
But Rachel, is he talking about a specific dragon constellation, and what traits are associated with being born, or in Edmund's case, conceived, under the dragon's tail for 16th and 17th century England?
R
9:10Rachel SweeneyGUEST
So yes, the dragon's tail that Edmund's referring to here is actually the constellation Draco, which is right up around Ursa Major.
R
9:18Rachel SweeneyGUEST
So all of that is very related.
R
9:19Rachel SweeneyGUEST
It curls up around Ursa Minor along the way.
R
10:09Rachel SweeneyGUEST
And in addition, we also have other intellectuals who are operating during Shakespeare's time who would have been interested in these treatises and even disproving them.
R
10:17Rachel SweeneyGUEST
So there's a bit of a rhetoric about astrology that's happening at the time.
R
10:21Rachel SweeneyGUEST
So just so as to say, yes, that particular part of the Draco constellation, the tail, because it is descending, it's in a descending node, through Ursa Major, that leads to a sort of sinister, bad aspect of the horoscope for Edmund.
C
10:36Cassidy CashHOST
So totally a pop culture reference here for Shakespeare, essentially, of this is stuff people are talking about and dealing with, and that's reflected in the fact that he's putting this into his play.

They've just been warped and contorted and distorted to then serve a lower vibration, a different frequency.
J
40:21Joaquin EscobarGUEST
It aligns to that frequency, and then the portal can be created to Draco, for example, which then you obviously don't want.
J
40:28Joaquin EscobarGUEST
Yeah.
A
40:28Aaron KuhnHOST
yeah simple a simple way to say it is it's energy manipulation and that's what magic is that's what dark magic is just using that for siphoning energy and serves the self using others energy to serve yourself whereas i would say white magic or using it in a good way is to is using it to benefit yourself and others in a positive way right everything they know but they they know this is like the power dynamics how it works they have all this knowledge of how energy manipulation works and how to do it And they've kept humanity at a place where we're ignorant and don't understand this stuff so that they can then use it on us and get us entangled in their systems and do all this stuff.

Another Harry Potter parallel.
T

Yeah.
T
41:24Tyler KiwalaHOST
is everybody in those movies, they're named after a star or a constellation, right? You have like Draco Malfoy, you have Sirius Black, Regulus, like all, like, and if you keep go down the list, like they're all tied to these constellations.
T
41:39Tyler KiwalaHOST
And I think they're trying to tell you like, so these secret societies, and if you get in, we did a whole Illuminati in the music industry webinar and, And they are very much tied to Saturn and Sirius.

The Draconids take place on October the 8th.
S
23:31Stuart GaryHOST
They're so named because their meteors appear to radiate out from the constellation Draco the Dragon, and so are best viewed from the Northern Hemisphere.
S
23:40Stuart GaryHOST
They're actually produced as the Earth's orbit takes it through the debris trail left behind by the comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, which takes about 6.6 Earth years to make a single revolution of the Sun.
S
23:53Stuart GaryHOST
The Taurids meteor shower takes place on October 10th, and as their name suggests, they appear to radiate out from the constellation Taurus the Bull.
