ADS 7251 is a binary star system 6.33 parsecs (20.66 light years) from the Sun. The components are near-identical red dwarfs separated by 17″ in 2019.

The two stars share a mildly eccentric orbit with a semimajor axis of 16.725″ and a period of 975 years. Their separation has closed from 21.1″ when they were discovered by F. G. W. Struve in 1821 to 16.9″ in 2019. Struve also documented two much fainter stars about 3′ from the two red dwarfs.[10]

ADS 7251 A is 0.06 magnitudes (six percent) brighter than ADS 7251 B. A catalogue of MK spectral classes lists both stars as secondary standards, with ADS 7251 A being class M0V and ADS 7251 B being class K7V, noted as being unusual in the brighter star having a later spectral type.[4] Other publications have described the stars as being both K7V, both M0V, or the primary being K7V and the secondary M0V.[11][9]

Planetary system

ADS 7251 B, also known as Gliese 338 B or HD 79211, is orbited by one known planet discovered in 2020 by radial velocity. Though described as a super-Earth by its discovery paper, it is closer in mass to Uranus.[9] An independent confirmation of the planet was published in 2022.[12]
