Gamma Cephei A is a binary star system located approximately 45 light-years away in the constellation Cepheus. It consists of two stars: a primary star, which is a yellow-orange giant, and a secondary star, a smaller and cooler red dwarf. The primary star is about 1.5 times the mass of our Sun and has expanded as it aged. The system is notable for its potential to host planets, as the primary star has a stable habitable zone. This makes Gamma Cephei A an interesting target for astronomers studying planetary formation and the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
