GL GJ 4114A is a common star. It lies about 89.6 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Aql and shines at apparent magnitude 10.38.
It is a binary: two stars orbiting a shared centre of mass. More than half of all the 'stars' you can see are actually multiple systems.
Look for GL GJ 4114A in the constellation Aql. At apparent magnitude 10.38, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, GL GJ 4114A is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
GL GJ 4114A scores 17 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the common tier. Another 5 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, Binary star and Deep red star — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
