List of nearest stars and brown dwarfs

There are 52 stellar systems beyond our own Solar system that currently lie within 5.0 parsecs (16.3 light-years) of the Sun. These systems contain a total
of 63 stars, of which 50 are red dwarfs, by far the most common type of star in the Milky Way. Much more massive stars, such as our own, make up the
remaining 13. In addition to these "true" stars, there are 11 brown dwarfs (objects not quite massive enough to fuse hydrogen), and 4 white dwarfs
(extremely dense objects that remain after stars such as our Sun exhaust all fusable hydrogen in their core and slowly shed their outer layers while only
the collapsed core remains). Despite the relative proximity of these objects to Earth, only nine (not including the Sun) exceed 6.5
apparent magnitude, the
dimmest magnitude visible to thenaked eye from Earth.[1] All of these objects are located in theLocal Bubble, a region within the Orion–Cygnus Arm of
the Milky Way.

than 5.0 parsecs (16 light-years) over the next 15 million years. Of these, 26 have a good probability to come within 1.0 parsec (3.3 light-years) and
another 7 within 0.5 parsecs (1.6 light-years).[2] This number is likely much higher, due to the sheer number of stars needed to be surveyed; a star
approaching the Solar System 10 million years ago, moving at a typical Sun-relative 20–200 kilometers per second, would be 600–6,000 light years from the Sun at present day, with millions of stars
closer to the Sun. The closest encounter to the Sun so far predicted is the low-mass orange dwarf star Gliese 710 / HIP 89825 with roughly 60% the mass of the Sun.[3] It is currently predicted to pass

19,300 ± 3,200 astronomical units (0.305 ± 0.051 light-years) from the Sun in1.280 −0.039 million years from the present, close enough to significantly disturb our Solar System's

The easiest way to determine stellar distance to the Sun for objects at these distances is parallax, which measures how much stars appear to move against background objects over the course of Earth's
orbit around the Sun. As aparsec (parallax-second) is defined by the distance of an object that would appear to move exactly one second of arc against background objects, stars less than 5 parsecs away
will have measured parallaxes of over 0.2 arcseconds, or 200 milliarcseconds. Determining past and future positions relies on accurate astrometric measurements of their parallax and total proper
motions (how far they move across the sky due to their actual velocity relative to the Sun), along with spectroscopically determined radial velocities (their speed directly towards or away from us, which
combined with proper motion defines their true movement through the sky relative to the Sun). Both of these measurements are subject to increasing and significant errors over very long time spans,
.[4]
especially over the several thousand-year time spans it takes for stars to noticeably move relative to each other

The classes of the stars and brown dwarfs are shown in the color of their spectral types (these colors are derived from conventional names for the spectral types and do not represent the star's observed
color). Many brown dwarfs are not listed by visual magnitude but are listed by near-infrared J band apparent magnitude due to how dim (and often invisible) they are in visible colors. Some of the

Sol), except for
brown dwarfs discovered after 2009. Double and triple stars are shown "stacked", but the true location
is the star closest to the central plane. Color corresponds to the table above.

Distant future and past encounters

Over long periods of time, the slow independent motion of stars change in both relative position and in their distance from the observer. This can cause other currently distant stars to fall within a stated
range, which may be readily calculated and predicted using accurate astrometric measurements of parallax and total proper motions, along with spectroscopically determined radial velocities. Although
predictions can be extrapolated back into the past or forward into the future, they are subject to increasing significant cumulative errors over very long periods.[4] Inaccuracies of these measured
dif [51]
parameters make determining the true minimum distances of any encountering stars or brown dwarfs fairly ficult.

Examples of notable predicted stellar encounters falling within 5 parsecs from the Sun appear in the list below. A summary of
the more likely candidates include:

Scholz's star and its companion brown dwarf is thought to have passed about 52,000 astronomical units (0.25
parsecs; 0.82 light-years) from the Sun about 70,000 years ago. [52]

Gamma Microscopii approximately 3.8 million years ago has been predicted to approach as close as 6 light-
years from the Sun. Maximum apparent magnitude possibly reached −3, being brighter than the current
brightest star, Sirius. More recent examination of measurement errors now suggests it may or may not have
passed within 5.0 parsecs.
Gliese 710 / HIP 89825 is the low mass orange K7 spectral type star that currently lies about 63.8 light-years
(19.6 parsecs) from the Sun. Based on past and 2007Hipparcos data,[53] was first estimated to approach just
under one light year from theSun some 1.4 million years from now to appear as a first-magnitude star roughly
equal in brightness to Antares. As total proper motion of Gliese 710 is very small and a radial velocity of
−119 km/s is fairly high, this suggests it is traveling at a similar and relatively close-approach trajectory to the
Solar System. Gaia DR2 in 2018 now predicts the closest known encounter so far known: Minimum perihelion
distance is 0.0676±0.0157 parsecs or 13900±3200AU about 1.281 million years in the future. The Gliese 710
close approach will likely cause the greatest knowngravitational perturbation on celestial objects within in the
Solar System.[3]
Ross 248 is presently about 10.3 light-years away from the Sun and in about 31,000 years from now it may be Distances of the nearest stars from 20,000 years ago until
the closest star for several millennia, with a minimum distance of 0.927 parsecs (3.02 light-years) in 36,000 80,000 years in the future
years.[4]

Gliese 445 present distance is 17.6 light-years but in about 40,000 years it will become the closest star for a
period of several thousand years.
HIP 85605 in 2014 was estimated to approach the Sun between 0.13 to 0.65 light-years (8,200 to 41,100 astronomical units; 0.040 to 0.199 parsecs) within the next 240,000 to
470,000 years.[54][55][56] With the release of Gaia DR2, it was determined that HIP 85605 is actually a much more distant 1790±30 light-years away, and as such will not be
passing remotely close to the Sun at any point in time.

Notes
1. Parallaxes given by RECONS are a weighted mean of values in the sources given, as well as measurements by the RECONS program.
2. Before 1900: earliest certain recorded observation. 1900–1930: first catalogued. After 1930: earliest trigonometric or spectroscopic parallax.
3. Systems with their first accurate trigonometric parallaxes measured by RECONS
4. Might not be within 5 parsecs of the Sun.
