It says luminosity 0.04 times the Sun, which makes it a dim star. It says apparent magnitude 7.61 at 700 light years, which makes it a bright star, much brighter. It says absolute magnitude 8.75, which makes it a dim star. But the German Wikipedia article says absolute magnitude 0.97, which makes it a bright star. And both articles say Mira variable, which means all those very incompatible numbers could be true at different times. But they don't say that. Art LaPella ( talk) 20:03, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
