Its story
Rho Coronae Borealis is a sun-like yellow star at 56 light-years, and ranks among the first sun-like stars in which an extrasolar planet was confirmed, in the late 1990s. Today several worlds are credited to its orbit, making it one of the best-studied planetary systems in the immediate solar neighbourhood within the Northern Crown.
