Characteristics
HD 191939 is a Sun-like G-type main-sequence star, likely older than the Sun and relatively depleted in metals.
Planetary system
In 2020, an analysis carried out by a team of astronomers led by astronomer Mariona Badenas-Agusti of the TESS project confirmed the existence of three gas giants,[3] all smaller than Neptune, in orbit around HD 191939. Another non-transiting gas giant planet designated HD 191939 e was detected in 2021, along with a substellar object on a highly uncertain, 9 to 46 year orbit.[4]
