Pr0211

Pr0211 (sometimes written Pr 0211, also 2MASS J08421149+1916373) is a Sun-like late G or early K-type main-sequence star in the Beehive Cluster, or Praesepe, located 600 light-years away in the constellation Cancer. It is rotationally variable and has a rotation period of 7.97 days, with its spin axis at an inclination of 76°±11° to the plane of the sky. Pr0211 hosts two known exoplanets, and was the first multi-planet system to be discovered in an open cluster.
