GL GJ 3193B is a rare star. It lies about 24.9 light-years from Earth, sits in the constellation Eri, shines at apparent magnitude 11.8 and has spectral type M3.
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 3193B in the constellation Eri. At apparent magnitude 11.8, a small backyard telescope will bring it into view.
Like any astronomical target, GL GJ 3193B 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 3193B scores 38 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the rare tier. Another 12 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Star, Nearby (<25 ly), Binary star, Cool red M-type star, Red dwarf and Intrinsically feeble (Mv > +12) — 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.
