HD 196885

HD 196885 is a 6th magnitude binary star in the constellation Delphinus. According to its parallax of 29.15 milliarcseconds, it is located at a distance of 112 light years from Earth. In 2004, a planet was announced to be orbiting the star in a 386-day orbit. Follow-up work published in 2008 did not confirm the original candidate but instead found evidence of a planet in a 1349-day orbit.

The star BD+10 4351B, located 192 arcseconds away from HD 196885 is located at the same distance and may be a physically bound companion star, in which case HD 196885 is a triple system. If it is bound, then the separation is at least 6600 AU (the separation along the line-of-sight is unknown, so this value represents a lower limit on the true separation).
