This star is 63.2 light years away, an F8V star with an M companion. It’s about 4.3 billion years old with a metallicity 1.3 times that of Sol. It appears to produce an extremely large flare every so often --one large enough to destroy the Earth‘s ozone layer if Sol were to produce one.
HD 25457/Gliese 159
In Eridanus at a distance of 63 light years, this is an F5V star. I could not find info on metallicity, but it has a debris disk, a good sign for planets.
