Dec.: 33, 20. Constellation Location: Gemini Distance from Sol: 19.4 light years Spectral Class: dM4 (dwarf red star with no emission lines, i.e., not a flare star--they erupt, which would probably cause problems at habitable planets) The arguments in favor: --red star as per text re: pink light, no blue output from star. --a Wolf star (that isn't a flare star). --less than or equal to 20 light years from Sol. --(special bonus) located in the constellation of the Twins.
