Constellation Canis Minor
Right ascension 07h 27m 24.4991s
Declination +05° 13′ 32.827″
Luyten's Star (GJ 273) is a red dwarf in the constellation Canis Minor located at a distance of approximately 12.36 light-years from Sol. This star is approximately a quarter the mass of the Sun and has 35% of the Sun's radius.
In March 2017, two planets were discovered orbiting Luyten's Star.
GJ 273b is one of the closest known planets in its star's habitable zone.
In October 2017, "Sónar Calling GJ 273b," a project by Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence (METI) and Sónar, a music festival in Barcelona, transmitted a series of radio signals towards Luyten’s star from a radar antenna at Ramfjordmoen, Norway.
