Location of LHS 2090 in the constellation Cancer

LHS 2090 is a red dwarf star of spectral type M6.5V, located in constellation Cancer at 20.8 light-years from Earth.[10]

The star was identified to be a red dwarf at short distance (6 parsecs from Sun) in 2001.[11] As typical for very cool red dwarfs, its spectrum is dominated by molecular water absorption. Stellar metallicity is similar to that of Sun`s.[8]

Radial velocity measurements did not yield any detection of stellar companion or giant planet on orbit around LHS 2090, as in 2018.[2]
