I’ve come across some information on stars that I missed when I was originally compiling my list, so for the next few entries we’ll be drawing closer to Sol again.

Gliese 442/HR 4523/HD 102365 is 30 light years away.  It's made up of a G5V star with an M companion, observed at a distance of 194 AU, in Centaurus.  The system could be anywhere from 4.5 to 10 billion years old.  Metallicity is 44% that of Sol.  Gliese 432 is 4.3 light years away, about the same distance as Sol is from Alpha Centauri.  Gliese 453 is 7.8 light years away and Gliese 370 is 13.8 light years away.  61 Virginis is just a hair over 15 light years away.

By the way, I have an offline commitment that will be taking up all my time for the next few days -- I will be back early next week.
