It’s a star. In fact, two stars that revolve each other! The star’s major claim to fame is this tiny companion, Procyon B, one of three classic white dwarfs. Someday, Procyon A will join it as a white dwarf itself.

It’s the eighth-brightest “star” in the night sky and the brightest object in the constellation of Canis Minor.

It can catch your eye, and then you always see it. Why?

Procyon, there you always are, catching my eye in the winter sky. Why?
