HD 187123 is an 8th magnitude G-type main sequence star located approximately 156 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus. Like our Sun, it is a yellow dwarf (spectral type G5V). Being at a distance of about 160 light-years it is not visible to the unaided eye. However, it should be easy target with binoculars or small telescope.
Planetary system
In 1998 the California and Carnegie Planet Search team, after following a suggestion by Kevin Apps, a Briton who at the time was an undergraduate student[1] found a possible planet orbiting the star.[2] There were also indications of another, more distant body orbiting the star and this claim was published in 2006.[3] This planet was confirmed in 2009.[4]
