Fomalhaut

This planet grasped my attention through the fact that it is famous in astronomical science for being the first star with a visible exoplanet. Through further research I found that Fomalhaut is sometimes called the Autumn Star by people in the Northern Hemisphere. Many times, since it is in a part of the sky with not many other bright stars around, it is referred to as the Lonely One, Solitary One, or Loneliest Star. It can be found though, in the open mouth of the fish in the constellation Piscus Austrinus.
