HD 211415 is a binary star system in the constellation Grus. It has a relatively high proper motion and is located about 44 light years from the Sun.

These two stars have an orbit with a semi-major axis of 3.4″, which is approximately equal to 46 A.U.s. This is larger than the orbit of Pluto around our Sun, which has a semi-major axis of 39.5 A.U. This system has not been observed for a sufficient length of time to establish the remaining orbital parameters with sufficient precision.

Possibility of planets and life

HD 211415 was identified in September 2003 by astrobiologist Margaret Turnbull from the University of Arizona in Tucson as one of the most promising nearby candidates for hosting life based on her analysis of the HabCat list of stars.[2]
