GL GJ 3106 is a trash star. It lies about 42.5 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Cas, shines at apparent magnitude 10.07 and has spectral type B5.
Its spectrum reads B5 — a blue-white B-type star, with a surface tens of thousands of degrees hot and a life measured in tens of millions of years.
Look for GL GJ 3106 in the constellation Cas. At apparent magnitude 10.07, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, GL GJ 3106 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 3106 scores 13 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the trash tier. Another 2 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Star, Never sets (northern circumpolar) and Hot blue B-type 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.
