Astronomy Picture of the Day . ... Credit Copyright: STSci Digitized Sky Survey, Anglo-Australian Observatory Explanation: The closest star system to the Sun is the Alpha Centauri system . Of the three stars in the system, the dimmest -- called Proxima Centauri -- is actually the nearest star . The bright stars Alpha Centauri A and B form a close binary as they are separated by only 23 times the Earth - Sun distance - slightly greater than the distance between Uranus and the Sun . ...

Using the 1-m telescope at Ritter Observatory, we took 36 observations of \zeta$^2$ Coronae Borealis with a fiber-fed echelle spectrograph. From these observations, \zeta$^2$ CrB was found to be a triple system and a new spectroscopic orbit was calculated. ... The inner binary`s center of mass (\zeta$^2$ CrB AB) describes a long-period single-lined variation identified with the outer binary. ... The inner binary possesses an essentially circular orbit $(e = 0.48)$. ...
