HIP 70849 is 78.5 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 1 planet around this K7 V star; the first was found in 2011 by radial velocity (La Silla Observatory).
Fly there in 3DHIP 70849 b takes 10.0 years to go round its star once.
HIP 70849 is one of 2 stars in its system. The position of the other star is not catalogued, so only HIP 70849 and its planets are drawn.

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
