Fomalhaut is the 18th brightest star in the night sky, located approximately 25 light-years from Earth in the constellation Piscis Austrinus.
It shines in solitary splendor with a bluish light in the autumn sky.
It's also an eye wreathed in flame, never blinking.
That's the duality of astronomy.🔭

In case of disobedience jailers would be punished with severe fines which had to be paid to the prisoner.[5][6]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:egd33s7iuqsmwlwab6mbtrqi/bafkreieocoa2jelvyioyspfyjhchhj6lqvjgxf6vm73l4mamvtls72tzmq)
