HD 24496

HD 24496 is a 7th magnitude G-type wide binary star and M-type located approximately 67 light years away in the constellation Taurus. This star is smaller, cooler, fainter, and less massive than our Sun. Also its metal content is just 2% greater than the Sun. In 2009, a gas giant planet was discovered of HD 24496 A.
