HD 221585 is a G8 IV star 182 light-years away, with one known planet in orbit. The star is estimated to be 6.2 billion years old, with a mass of 1.19 solar masses and a temperature of 5620 K. Its reported mass estimate is larger than the Sun's, while its reported temperature is cooler than the Sun's.
The planet HD 221585 b was discovered in 2016 by the radial velocity method, which measures the wobble a planet's gravity induces in its star's motion; repeated wobbles reveal the planet and its orbital period. Its minimum mass is 512 Earth masses, a lower bound on its true mass, and its minimum mass is larger than Earth's and roughly 1.61 times Jupiter's mass. HD 221585 b takes 1170 days to complete one orbit.
