Default Have you hugged a red dwarf lately?

gswork nous a écrit :


It's a fascinating universe out there, so now to something closer to
home - what's the best dwarf class star to view in the northern
hemisphere if you have a modest scope?


Barnard's star in Ophiucus. Class M star.
As it's very close from the Earth, you can see its proper motion in a few
years.
Or 61 Cygni, which is a double K star.
