*** Upsilon Andromedae ( with Whipple Observatory )

Upsilon Andromedae ( υ Andromedae, υ And ) is a binary star located approximately 44 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Andromeda.

The primary star ( Upsilon Andromedae A ) is a yellow-white dwarf star that is somewhat younger than the Sun.

The second star in the system ( Upsilon Andromedae B ) is a red dwarf located in a wide orbit.

Upsilon Andromedae was both the first multiple-planet planetary system to be discovered around a main sequence star, and the first multiple-planet system known in a multiple star system.

Upsilon Andromedae A was ranked 21st in the list of top 100 target stars for the NASA Terrestrial Planet Finder mission, which has, however, been reported to have been cancelled as of 2011.

Upsilon Andromedae is located fairly close to the Solar System: the parallax of Upsilon Andromedae A was measured by the Hipparcos astrometry satellite as 74. 12 milliarcseconds, corresponding to a distance of 13. 49 parsecs ( 44 light years ).

Upsilon Andromedae A has an apparent magnitude of + 4. 09, making it visible to the naked eye even under moderately light-polluted skies, about 10 degrees east of the Andromeda Galaxy.

The dimmer star Upsilon Andromedae B is only visible with a telescope.

Upsilon Andromedae A is a yellow-white dwarf of spectral type F8V, similar to the Sun, but younger, more massive, and more luminous.

The true separation between the two stars is unknown because the displacement along the line of sight between us and the Upsilon Andromedae stars is unknown, so this value is a minimum separation.

The Washington Double Star Catalog lists two optical components ; however, these do not share the system's proper motion and only appear close to Upsilon Andromedae because they happen to lie near the same line of sight.

The innermost planet of the Upsilon Andromedae system was discovered in 1996 and announced in January 1997, together with the planet of Tau Boötis and the innermost planet of 55 Cancri.

The planet, designated Upsilon Andromedae b, was discovered by measuring changes in the star's radial velocity induced by the planet's gravity.

The two outer planets were designated Upsilon Andromedae c and Upsilon Andromedae d in order of increasing distance from the star.

At Swarthmore, Perkins joined the Delta Upsilon Fraternity and played varsity football alongside his classmate, DU brother and future 1972 Nobel Prize laureate Christian B. Anfinsen.

The companion, Upsilon Sagittarii B, is more massive, but so dim at visible frequencies as to be undetectable by optical telescopes.

The companion, Upsilon Ursae Majoris B, is a magnitude + 11. 5 star, 11. 3 arcseconds away from the primary.
