Hubble WFPC2 observation show part of the orbital motion of G 107-70 between 1997 and 1999.

G 107-69/70 is a quadruple system, consisting of the astrometric binary G 107-69 and the resolved binary G 107-70. [2] The system is 36.76 light years (11.27 parsecs) from Earth. [1] G 107-69 and G 107-70 are separated by 103.2 arcseconds, or 1163 astronomical units (AU). [2]

G 107-69A is a red dwarf star with a spectral type of M4.5 [7] and a mass of about 0.17  M. G 107-69B has a mass of about 0.08 M or 84  MJ. The binary has a period of 0.94 years and a predicted separation of about 50  mas. [2] From its mass G 107-69B could be either a low-mass red dwarf star or a brown dwarf.

G 107-70 (also called WD 0727+482) is a pair of white dwarfs, with both having similar mass, brightness and atmospheric composition. [3] [8] The binary was first partially resolved in 1976. [9] Later Nelan et al. fully resolved the orbit of this binary with Hubble's Fine Guidance Sensor and found an orbital period of 18.84±0.02 years and a semi-major axis of 663.62±0.79 mas. [3] At a distance of 11.27 parsecs the semi-major axis is about 7.5  AU.

By resolving the orbit of the G 107-70 system Nelan et al. were able to calculate the dynamical mass of each component: G 107-70A has a mass of 0.634±0.01  M and G 107-70B has a mass of 0.599±0.01 M. [3] Both white dwarfs have a spectral type of DA, which indicates an atmosphere dominated by hydrogen. [8]
