Pollux, the head of the more easterly of the two twins (who is also named Pollux). Interestingly (and somewhat confusingly for people who think the designations run in order of brightness), Pollux is actually Beta Geminorum, not Alpha Geminorum (aka Castor).
No, they are not even in the same constellation.
