GJ 1061 is a red dwarf approximately 12 light years from Earth in the southern constellation Pendulum Clock . Despite its relative proximity, it is very faint and with an apparent brightness of around 13 mag, at least a medium-sized telescope is required to be able to observe it.

meaning

The proper movement of GJ 1061 had been known for a long time, but it was thought to be further away. Its distance was only determined exactly in 1997 by the international astronomers association RECONS ( Research Consortium On Nearby Stars ). At this point it was the twenty-second closest known star to the Sun. The research group determined that many comparable stars could be discovered in the vicinity of the solar system.

Planetary system

In 2019, based on data from HARPS, the discovery of a planetary system with 3 planets was announced. 2 of these planets are possibly in the habitable zone and are accordingly included in the list of potentially habitable planets .
