GL Gl 907 is an uncommon star. It lies about 54.2 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Cas, shines at apparent magnitude 12.06 and has spectral type M1.
Its spectrum reads M1 — an M-type red star — and M stars are the silent majority: roughly three of every four stars in the galaxy are one.
Look for GL Gl 907 in the constellation Cas. At apparent magnitude 12.06, it takes a larger telescope or a long-exposure image to capture.
Like any astronomical target, GL Gl 907 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 Gl 907 scores 26 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 8 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 5 science badges — Star, Never sets (northern circumpolar), Cool red M-type star, Deep red star and Red dwarf — 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.
