Ross 248, also called HH Andromedae or Gliese 905, is a small star approximately 10.30 light-years from Earth in the northern constellation of Andromeda. Despite its proximity it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye. It was first catalogued by Frank Elmore Ross in 1926 with his second list of proper-motion stars; on which count it ranks 261st in the SIMBAD database. It was too dim to be included in the Hipparcos survey. In about 40,000 years, Voyager 2 will pass 1.7 light-years from the star.

DX Cancri is a variable star in the northern zodiac constellation of Cancer. With an apparent visual magnitude of 14.81, it is much too faint to be seen with the naked eye. Visually viewing this star requires a telescope with a minimum aperture of 16 in (41 cm). Based upon parallax measurements, DX Cancri is located at a distance of 11.8 light-years from Earth. This makes it the 18th closest star to the Sun.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">11 Leonis Minoris</span> Star in the constellation Leo Minor

11 Leonis Minoris is a binary star located 36.64 light years away from Earth, in the northern constellation of Leo Minor. It is visible to the naked eye as a dim, yellow-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.54. The system is moving away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +14.4 km/s. It has a relatively high proper motion, traversing the celestial sphere at the rate of 0.764 arc seconds per annum.

CFBDSIR J145829+101343 is a binary system of two brown dwarfs of spectral classes T9 + Y0 orbiting each other, located in constellation Boötes about 104 light-years away from Earth.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">WISE J0254+0223</span> Star in the constellation Cetus

WISEPA J025409.45+022359.1 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T8, located in constellation Cetus at approximately 22.3 light-years from Earth.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">WISE 1217+1626</span> Star in the constellation Coma Berenices

WISEPC J121756.91+162640.2 is a binary brown dwarf system of spectral classes T9 + Y0, located in constellation Coma Berenices at approximately 30.4 light-years from Earth.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">LSR J1835+3259</span>

LSR J1835+3259 is a nearby ultracool dwarf of spectral class M8.5, located in constellation Lyra, the discovery of which was published in 2003. Previously it was concluded that this star is a young brown dwarf, but no lithium absorption lines are detected for this object, which is a strong indicator for young brown dwarfs that need 10-100 million years to deplete lithium.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">2MASS J11145133−2618235</span> Brown dwarf star in the constellation Hydra

2MASS J11145133−2618235, or 2M1114−26, or 2M1114−2618, or 2MASS 1114−26, or 2MASS J1114−2618) is a nearby brown dwarf of spectral class T7.5, located in constellation Hydra at approximately 18 light-years from Earth.

Xi Pegasi is the Bayer designation for a double star in the northern constellation of Pegasus, the winged horse. Located in the horse's neck, the primary component is an F-type main sequence star that is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.2. It is 86% larger and 17% more massive that the Sun, radiating 4.5 times the solar luminosity. Based upon parallax measurements taken with the Hipparcos spacecraft, it is located 53.2 ± 0.2 light years from the Sun.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">2MASS J03552337+1133437</span> Brown dwarf in the constellation Taurus

2MASS J03552337+1133437 is a nearby brown dwarf of spectral type L5γ, located in constellation Taurus at approximately 29.8 light-years from Earth.

2MASS J0523−1403 is a very-low-mass red dwarf about 40 light-years from Earth in the southern constellation of Lepus, with a very faint visual magnitude of 21.05 and a low effective temperature of 2074 K. It is visible primarily in large telescopes sensitive to infrared light. 2MASS J0523−1403 was first observed as part of the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS).

GJ 3323 is a nearby single star located in the equatorial constellation Eridanus, about 0.4° to the northwest of the naked eye star Psi Eridani. It is invisible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude 12.20. Parallax measurements give a distance estimate of 17.5 light-years from the Sun. It is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +42.3 km/s. Roughly 104,000 years ago, the star is believed to have come to within 7.34 ± 0.16 light-years of the Solar System.

Gliese 205 is a nearby red dwarf star of spectral type M1.5, located in the constellation Orion at a distance of 18.6 light-years from Earth.

LP 816-60 is a single red dwarf star of spectral type M4, located in constellation Capricornus at 18.6 light-years from Earth.

GJ 1128 is a red dwarf star of spectral type M4.0V, located in constellation Carina 21 light-years away from Earth. It is one of the closer stars to the Sun.
