Because of its solar-type properties, astrobiologists have listed it among the most astrobiologically interesting stars within 10 parsecs of Sol. High probability of life, as similar to Sol. Porto de Mello lists it as one of 13 nearby astrobiologically interesting stars.

Star system features
g Star lies near the same line of sight as the sub-giant star HD 101212, although it is presently unclear whether these two stars are gravitationally bound or even in physical proximity.

Known planets
g No sub-stellar companions have been observed in orbit around this star, and it appears to lack a dust ring as is found around some comparable stars.

Habitable zone
g Given age of star, it probably does not sport an M-class planet.

Gl 451 AB

Star type
g A: G8VI
g B: M (Observations announced in 1998 suggest that sightings of this companion were actually observations of a new gargantuan class of stellar mass ejection associated recently with Sol-type stars of spectral class F8 to G8 called a "superflare" from the primary star itself .)

Distance from Earth
g 28.12 ly

Star Service No.
g NA

Age
g A: Probably 3.24 Gyr but may be at least 5.4 billion years old based on chromospheric anaysis alone, but its halo subdwarf status would suggest that the star is at least 10 billion years old, having formed during a period of rapid collapse that lasted perhaps a billion years in the early history of the Milky Way galaxy prior the development of the galactic disk.
g B: NA

Diameter/Mass/Temp (xSol)
g A: 64%; 60.5%; NA
g B: NA; 15.4%; NA

Brightness (xSol)
g A: 17.2169%-19% (Emits enormous magnetic outbursts produce "superflares", aka coronal mass ejections, that release between 100 and 10 million times more energy than the largest flares ever observed on the sun, making them brighten briefly by up to 20 times. These superflares last from one hour to one week and increase the normal luminosity of a star as much as one thousand times. They occur, on average, about once per century.)

Star system features
g NA

Known planets
g A: Given the low abundance of elements heavier than hydrogen, the star is more likely to have gas giants in cold outer orbits than rocky planets in close orbit.
g B: NA

Habitable zone
g A: Given the regular eruption of superflares, it is unlikely that Earth-type life could survive for long on any inner rocky planet (If Sol were to produce a large superflare, Earth's ozone layer would be destroyed, and ice on the daylight side of moons as far out as those of Jupiter or even Saturn would be melted, producing vast floodplains that refreeze after the flare subsides. ). The distance where an Earth-type planet would be comfortable with liquid water is only about 0.44 AU (around the orbit of Mercury).
