The star Alphard, the brightest star in the constellation called Hydra, has a many special properties. It is called the 'Solitary One' as it the only one with no other stars anywhere near it. It is large enough and bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. It is 85 light years away and over 100 times as powerful as the Sun.
