Gliese 667 Cc (also known as GJ 667 Cc, HR 6426 Cc, or HD 156384 Cc) [2] is an exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the red dwarf star Gliese 667 C, which is a member of the Gliese 667 triple star system, approximately 23.62 light-years (7.24 parsecs; 223.5 trillion kilometres) away in the constellation of Scorpius.
The largest star in the system, Gliese 667 A (GJ 667 A), is a K-type main-sequence star of stellar classification K3V. [2] It has about 73% [5] of the mass of the Sun and 76% [2] of the Sun's radius, but is radiating only around 12-13% of the luminosity of the Sun. [15] The concentration of elements other than hydrogen and helium, what astronomers term the star's metallicity, is much lower ...
Gliese 667 Cc, discovered in 2011 but announced in 2012, [143] is a super-Earth orbiting in the circumstellar habitable zone of Gliese 667 C. It is one of the most Earth-like planets known. Gliese 163 c, discovered in September 2012 in orbit around the red dwarf Gliese 163 [144] is located 49 light years from Earth.
Gliese 667 is a triple star system with two K-type main sequence stars and a red dwarf. The red dwarf, C, hosts between two and seven planets, of which one, Cc, alongside the unconfirmed Cf and Ce, are potentially habitable. HD 188753 is a triple star system located approximately 149 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Cygnus.

Artist's impression of Gliese 667 Cc. The brightest star in the sky is the red dwarf Gliese 667 C, which is part of a triple star system. [27] Gliese 667 Cc was originally described as one of two 'super-Earth' planets around Gliese 667 C, a dim red star that is part of a triple star system. The stars of this system have a concentration of heavy ...
