Star system features
g Part of a stellar association dubbed the IC 2391 supercluster. All the stars of this group share a roughly common motion through space, although they are not gravitationally bound. This implies that they were born in the same location, and perhaps initially formed an open cluster. Other stars in this association include Alpha Pictoris, Beta Canis Minoris and the open cluster IC 2391.

Known planets
g Shows a strong infrared excess, which means there must be a debris disk of cool dust in orbit around it

Habitable zone
g Much too young to support an an Earth-like planet

Star system features
g This was the star Einstein used during the solar eclipse of Sept. 21, 1922, to determine the speed of light in space, as it fell close to the Sun.

Known planets
g Beta Virginis could host two or three jovian planets either [brown dwarfs] in wide orbits. Astronomers have set an upper limit of 1.9, 5 and 23 Jupiter masses for the putative planets with orbital periods of 15, 25 and 50 years respectively. However more recent studies have not confirmed the existence of any substellar companion around Beta Virginis yet. McDonald Observatory team has set limits to the presence of one or more planets with masses between 0.16 and 4.2 Jupiter masses and average separations spanning between 0.05 and 5.2 AUs.

Habitable zone
g The orbital distance where a planet currently would be "comfortable" for Earth-type carbon-based lifeforms with liquid water on the planetary surface in the so-called habitable zone is centered near 1.87 AU - between the orbital distances of Mars and the Main Asteroid Belt in the Solar System. At that distance from the star, such a planet would have an orbital period close to 2.3 Earth years (835 days). Life on an Earth-like planet, however, may have developed closer to the star before it evolved and began heating up out of the main sequence into a subgiant, thereby shifting its habitable zone outwards away from the star.
