This is an F6V star, 59.1 light years away, 3.5 billion years old with a metallicity about 55% of Sol’s. It also appears to have a smaller companion star.
Pi Mensae
This is a G1V (possibly IV) star located 59.4 light years out. It’s probably around 5.6 billion years old and is 1.25 times as enriched in metals as Sol. It has a super-Jovian planet with an eccentric orbit that likely rules out any Earthlike ones.
