Gliese 849 is a M3.5V red dwarf star approximately 29 light years away in the constellation of Aquarius. It has the first planet discovered orbiting a red dwarf with a semi-major axis greater than 0.21 AU.[4]

Planetary system

In late 2006, a long-period Jupiter-like planet was reported to be orbiting the red dwarf in a period just over 5 years in length. There was also a linear trend in the radial velocities which suggested another longer period companion.[5] The trend in the radial velocities was confirmed in 2013.[6] An orbit for the second planet was finally determined in 2015.[4]
