Description

A bright orange star that is relatively cool but stable, being of a class that typically runs a fusion process on the main-sequence for as long as 30 billion years. Planetary systems containing an abundance of heavier metals and relatively complex molecular products have been noted as present around such stars.

These stable stars, emitting relatively gentle levels of ultraviolet radiation, are common targets for scientific expeditions looking for life or colonization survey teams seeking viable planets within their comfortable habitable zones.
