Location of Gliese 445 in the constellation Camelopardalis

Location


Distances of the nearest stars from 20,000 years ago until 80,000 years in the future

It is currently 17.1 light-years from Earth and has an apparent magnitude of 10.8. It is visible from north of the Tropic of Cancer all night long, but not to the naked eye.[10] Because the star is a red dwarf with a mass only a quarter to a third of that of the Sun, scientists question the ability of this system to support life.[10] Gliese 445 is also a known X-ray source.[11]

The Voyager 1 probe and Gliese 445 will pass one another within 1.6 light-years in about 40,000 years.[12] By that time Gliese 445 will be in a part of the sky different from its present location. The probe will no longer be operational.


Solar encounter


While the Voyager probe moves through space towards a 1.6-light-year minimum distance from Gliese 445, the star is rapidly approaching the Sun. At the time the probe passes Gliese 445, the star will be about 1.059 parsecs (3.45 light-years) from the Sun,[13] but with less than half the brightness necessary to be seen with the naked eye.[10] At that time, Gliese 445 will be approximately tied with Ross 248 for being the closest star to the Sun (see List of nearest stars#Future and past).

Глизе 445 (AC+79 3888) — звезда главной последовательности спектрального класса М в созвездии Жирафа, находится недалеко от Полярной звезды. Она не имеет исторического названия, только номер в каталоге. Глизе 445 в настоящее время находится на расстоянии 17,6 светового года от Солнца и имеет видимую звездную величину 10,8m[2]. Звезда светит в 120 раз слабее Солнца. Она видна в любой точке Земли к северу от тропика Рака всю ночь, но только в телескоп[5].
