Star system features
g Stars A and B are separated on average by 108 AUs (16.675" of a semi-major axis using an NSTARS' average of 21.11 ly) in an eccentric orbit (e= 0.28) that takes 975 years to complete

Known planets
g A: Once suspected of having an unseen companion
g B: NA

Habitable zone
g A: Distance where an Earth-type planet would be "comfortable" with liquid water is centered around only 0.175 AU - well inside Mercury's orbital distance in the Solar System; at that distance from the star, such a planet would have an orbital period of about 34.5 days, just over a third of an Earth year.
g B: Water-zone orbital distance would be 0.17 AU with a period of about 30 days
