HD 85390

HD 85390 is a main sequence star of spectral class K1 located approximately 109 light years away[1] in the constellation Vela, appearing as 8.55 magnitude star. This star is smaller, cooler, dimmer, and less massive than our Sun. Also its metal content is seven-sixths as much as the Sun. In 2009, a planet with a minimum mass of about 1/7 of Jupiter's was found in orbit around the star.
