HAT-P-29

HAT-P-29, also known as Muspelheim since 2019, is the primary of a binary star system about 1030 light-years away. It is a G-type main-sequence star. The star’s age of 2.2±1.0 billion years is less than half that of the Sun. HAT-P-29 is slightly enriched in heavy elements, having 35% more iron than the Sun. The very faint 19-magnitude stellar companion was detected in 2016 at a projected separation of 3.290±0.002″.
