Lalande 21185 (also known as BD+36 2147, Gliese 411, and HD 95735 [3]) is a star in the south of Ursa Major. It is the apparent brightest red dwarf in the northern hemisphere.

Red dwarf Lalande 21185 is located 8 light years away from the Sun. It is a single flare star of spectral class M2+V, that has 46 % of solar mass. There are multiple known exoplanets in this system.

Jan 1, 2024 · As you’d expect for a red dwarf, Lalande 21185 is a tiny star. Its diameter and mass are only 39 percent that of our Sun’s. Most of its energy is emitted as infrared radiation (heat), so its...

Lalande 21185 as a prime target for NASA's optical SIM and the ESA's infrared Darwin missions, now both indefinitely postponed. Due to Lalande 21185's proximity to Sol, the star has been an object of intense interest among astronomers.

Exoplanet Lalande 21185 b orbits star Lalande 21185 that lies 8 light years away from the Sun. It weighs about 2.7 Earth masses and orbits its star much closer than Earth orbits Sun.

Lalande 21185 is the third brightest red dwarf in the sky, topped only by Lacaille 8760 and Lacaille 9352 in Microscopium’s neighboring con-stellation, Piscis Austrinus.

Lalande 21185 (also known as BD+36 2147, Gliese 411, and HD 95735) is a star in the south of Ursa Major. It is the apparent brightest red dwarf in the northern hemisphere. Despite this, and being relatively close by, it is very dim (as are all red dwarfs), being only magnitude 7.5 in visible light and thus too faint to be seen with the unaided eye.

Jan 1, 2024 · As you’d count on for a red dwarf, Lalande 21185 is a tiny star. Its diameter and mass are solely 39 p.c that of our Solar’s. Most of its vitality is emitted as infrared radiation (warmth), so its brightness is just one/200 that of the Solar.

It may well be planets of the dim red dwarf star cataloged as Lalande 21185 -- a mere 8 light years distant. This star is too faint to be seen by the naked eye and its planets have not been imaged directly.

Lalande 21185 c is an exoplanet orbiting the star Lalande 21185, located about 8.3 light-years ( 2.5 pc) away from Solar System. Its discovery was publicly announced on 2021. The host star Lalande 21185 has apparent magnitude of 22.0, with absolute magnitude of 25.0.
