HD 154857 is a yellow main-sequence star approximately 224 light years away in the constellation of Ara.

Planetary system

There is one confirmed and one unconfirmed planet discovered in 2004[2] and 2007[3] respectively. The confirmed planet HD 154857 b has mass >1.8 times that of Jupiter. It orbits the star 20% further than Earth-Sun distance, taking 409 days with 47% eccentricity. The unconfirmed planet HD 154857 c with unknown mass (probably around 18 Jupiter masses) takes at least 1900 days to orbit around the star with an orbital eccentricity exceeding 0.25.
