Gliese 674
Gliese 674 is a pre-main-sequence red dwarf approximately 15 light years away in the southern constellation of Ara. Gliese 674, as is typical for young red dwarfs, is strongly active, with regular ultraviolet flares. As of 2019, the strongest ultraviolet flare detected had a total energy of 5.6*1023 joules and a duration of a few hours.On January 7, 2007, Bonfils used the HARPS spectrograph in ESO and found an intermediate mass planet orbiting close to the red dwarf star in an unusually eccentric orbit.
