HD 16175 is a 7th magnitude G-type star with temperature about 6000 K located 196 light-years (60 parsecs ) away [1] in the Andromeda constellation. This star is only visible through binoculars or better equipment; it is also 3.3 times more luminous, is 1.34 times more massive, and has a radius 1.66 times bigger than our local star. [5]
The star HD 16175 is named Buna. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Ethiopia, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Buna is the commonly used word for coffee in Ethiopia. [6] [7]
The discovery of the exoplanet HD 16175 b was published in the June 2009 issue of the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific . [4] The planetary parameters were updated in 2016. [8] In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 16175 b were determined via astrometry. [9]

The name was selected by Colombia during the IAU's NameExoWorlds campaign. The star has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.30, which is too faint to be visible to the naked eye. It is located at a distance of 93 light years from the Sun based on parallax. HD 93083 is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +43.65 km/s, having come to within 43 light-years some 484,000 years ago.
HD 6434 is a star in the southern constellation of Phoenix. Yellow dwarfs such as this are not very luminous, so at a distance of 138 light years it is not visible to the unaided eye. However, with binoculars it is readily visible under ideal observing conditions, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.71. The star is drifting further from the Sun with a radial velocity of +23 km/s.
HD 45350 is a solar analog star with an exoplanetary companion in the northern constellation of Auriga. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 7.89, which means it is an 8th magnitude star that is too dim to be readily visible to the naked eye. The system is located at a distance of 153 light-years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −21 km/s.
HD 52265 is a 6th-magnitude G-type main sequence star located approximately 98 light-years away in the constellation of Monoceros. It is 21% more massive than and more than twice as luminous as the Sun. The age of the star is roughly 2.6 billion years. The star HD 52265 is named Citalá. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by El Salvador, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Citalá means River of stars in the native Nahuat language.
HD 102195 is an orange-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Virgo with a confirmed exoplanet companion. With an apparent visual magnitude of 8.07, the star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye. The distance to HD 102195 can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 34.06 mas, yielding a separation of 95.8 light years. It is moving further away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of 1.85 km/s. This is a high proper motion star and a possible member of the η Cha stellar kinematic group.
HD 20782 is the primary of a wide binary system located in the southern constellation Fornax. It has an apparent magnitude of 7.38, making it readily visible in binoculars but not to the naked eye. The system is located relatively close at a distance of 117 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, but it is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 40.7 km/s. At its current distance, HD 20782's brightness is diminished by 0.12 magnitudes due to interstellar extinction and it has an absolute magnitude of +4.61.
94 Ceti is a trinary star system approximately 73 light-years away in the constellation Cetus.
HD 224693, also named Axólotl, is a star in the equatorial constellation of Cetus, and is positioned near the western constellation border with Aquarius. It can be viewed with a small telescope but is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.23. Based on parallax measurements, the object is located at a distance of approximately 306 light years from the Sun. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 1.5 km/s.
HD 11964 is a binary star system located 110 light-years away from the Sun in the equatorial constellation of Cetus. It is visible in binoculars or a telescope but is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.51. The system is drifting closer to the Sun with a radial velocity of −9 km/s. Two extrasolar planets have been confirmed to orbit the primary.
HD 17156, named Nushagak by the IAU, is a yellow subgiant star approximately 255 light-years away in the constellation of Cassiopeia. The apparent magnitude is 8.17, which means it is not visible to the naked eye but can be seen with good binoculars. A search for a binary companion star using adaptive optics at the MMT Observatory was negative.
HD 68988 is a star in the northern constellation of Ursa Major. It has been given the proper name Násti, which means star in the Northern Sami language. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Norway, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. HD 68988 is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.20. The star is located at a distance of 199 light years from the Sun based on parallax. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −69 km/s and is predicted to come as close as 78 light-years in 617,000 years.

HD 16175 b is an exoplanet located approximately 195.7 light-years away in the constellation of Andromeda, orbiting the star HD 16175. This planet has a minimum mass 4.8 times that of Jupiter; the true mass was initially unknown since the inclination of the orbit was unknown. This planet orbits at about 2.2 astronomical units, taking 2.73 years to revolve around the star. The orbit of the planet is highly elliptical with an eccentricity of 0.64. In 2023, the inclination and true mass of HD 16175 b were determined via astrometry.

It was officially named Lusitânia on 17 December 2019, after the IAU100 press conference in Paris by the IAU. This star has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.10, making it an 8th magnitude star that is too dim to be visible to the naked eye. The system is located at a distance of 114 light-years from the Sun based on parallax measurements, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −5 km/s. It shows a high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at an angular rate of 0.188 arcsec yr−1.

HD 85390 is a star with an exoplanet companion in the southern constellation of Vela. It was given the proper name Natasha by Zambia during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Natasha means "thank you" in many languages of Zambia. This star is too faint to be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 8.54. It is located at a distance of 109 light years from the Sun based on parallax, and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of 33 km/s.
HD 164604 is a single star in the southern constellation of Sagittarius constellation. It has the proper name Pincoya, as selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Chile, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Pincoya is a female water spirit from southern Chilean mythology who is said to bring drowned sailors to the Caleuche so that they can live in the afterlife. A 2015 survey ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 13 to 340 astronomical units. It is known to host a single super-Jupiter exoplanet.
