Gliese 880 is a red dwarf star 22.4 light-years away in the northern constellation of Pegasus. No stellar companions to Gliese 880 have been discovered as of 2020. [9]

Search for planets

In June 2019, a candidate planet detected by radial velocity in orbit around Gliese 880 was reported in a preprint. This would have a minimum mass about 8.5 times that of Earth and orbit with a period of 39.4 days, [10] which is close to the star's rotation period of 37.5 days. [7] A 2024 study did not detect the exact period of 39.4 days, but detected two radial velocity signals at 37.2 and 40.5 days, which correspond to the stellar rotation and an alias of it. Presumably, the previously claimed planet candidate is an artifact of stellar activity. [11]
