The survey in 2015 have ruled out the existence of any additional stellar companions at projected distances from 26 to 300 astronomical units.[4]

Planetary system

Announced in 2009, two extrasolar planets were discovered to be orbiting the star.[2] Both planets are less massive than Jupiter. The inner planet HD 215497 b orbits very close to the star and is termed a “hot super-Earth”. The outer planet HD 215497 c is Saturn-sized and orbits a little bit further from the star as the Earth, at around 1.282 AU.[2]

gollark: Implement the macronoform, entity.
gollark: You are putting too much thought into an irrelevant interpreter/compiler detail.
gollark: Reject intrinsics, return to having the compiler magically process keywords.

gollark: This gollark, that's what gollark.
