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 Cb is an exoplanet orbiting the star Gliese 667 C, a member of the Gliese 667 triple-star system. It is the most massive planet discovered in the system and is likely a super-Earth or a mini-Neptune. Orbital-stability analysis indicates that it cannot be more than twice its minimum mass.
A potentially habitable exoplanet that is roughly similar in size to Earth has been found in a system located 40 light-years away, according to a new study. ... Dubbed Gliese 12 b, the planet ...
In this artist’s concept, Gliese 12 b is shown retaining a thin atmosphere. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/R. Hurt (Caltech-IPAC)) Scientists have found a new Earth -like planet that could support alien life ...
Two teams of scientists have discovered a theoretically habitable planet called Gliese 12b that’s smaller than Earth but bigger than Venus, just 40 light-years away.
The combined catalogue is now commonly referred to as the Gliese–Jahreiß (GJ) catalog. [4] This catalogue was published with two tables: Table 1 uses the designations GJ NNNN for entries numbered 1000–1294 for confirmed nearby stars; Table 2 uses the designations GJ NNNN for entries numbered 2001–2159 for suspected nearby stars.

The articles for the two confirmed planets (Gliese 667 Cb and Gliese 667 Cc) should remain in place, though. 77.57.25.250 09:25, 4 May 2014 (UTC) Support. In addition I suggest including GJ 667Cb, GJ 667Cc and Gliese 667 in the merge. What is notable is the claimed planetary system around GJ 667C. Qemist 01:23, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
