55 Cancri
55 Cancri ( or ), also cataloged Rho1 Cancri or abbreviated 55 Cnc, is a binary star approximately 41 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Cancer. The system consists of a G-type star and a smaller red dwarf, separated by over 1,000 AU (one thousand times the distance from the Earth to the Sun). , five extrasolar planets have been confirmed to be orbiting the primary, 55 Cancri A (the yellow dwarf). The 55 Cancri system was the first known to have four, and later five planets, and may possibly have more. The innermost planet, e, transits 55 Cancri A as viewed from Earth.〔 The next planet, b, is non-transiting but there is tentative evidence that it is surrounded by an extended atmosphere that does transit the star. ==Distance and visibility== The 55 Cancri system is located fairly close to our solar system: the Hipparcos astrometry satellite measured the parallax of 55 Cancri A as 81.03 milliarcseconds, corresponding to a distance of 12.3 parsecs (40.3 light years).〔 55 Cancri A has an apparent magnitude of 5.95, making it visible through binoculars. It is just visible to the naked eye under very dark skies. The red dwarf 55 Cancri B is of the 13th magnitude and only visible through a telescope.
