HD 18445 / Gl 120.1 / HIP 13769 is a star system in the constellation Fornax, about 80 light years from Earth .
It consists of two K-dwarfs with an orbital period of approx. 150 years and a component C which is about 30 "away from this system and which was initially recognized as a spectroscopic double system and later with the help of adaptive optics and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope in Single stars could be resolved. The two components of C have a period of 1.5 years.
