HD 191939 is a single yellow (G-type) main-sequence star, located approximately 174 light-years away in the constellation of Draco, taking its primary name from its Henry Draper Catalogue designation.

Characteristics

HD 191939 is a Sun-like G-type main-sequence star, likely older than the Sun and relatively depleted in metals.

Planetary system

In 2020, an analysis carried out by a team of astronomers led by astronomer Mariona Badenas-Agusti of the TESS project confirmed the existence of three gaseous planets, all smaller than Neptune, in orbit around HD 191939.^[4] Another non-transiting gas giant planet designated HD 191939 e was detected in 2021, along with a substellar object on a highly uncertain, 9 to 46 year orbit.^[3] In 2022, a sixth planet, with a mass comparable to Uranus, was discovered in the system's habitable zone.^[6] The 2021 study also suggested the possible presence of an additional non-transiting planet with a period of 17.7 days,^[3] but the 2022 study did not support this.^[6]
