HD 125595 is a K4 V star 92 light-years away. Its spectral type places it among the cooler, less massive main-sequence stars, and its reported mass is 0.756 solar masses, smaller than the Sun's. Its reported temperature is 4910 K, cooler than the Sun's, and its age is 3.53 billion years. One planet orbits this host.
That planet, HD 125595 b, was found in 2011 by radial velocity, the method that detects 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 6.36 Earth masses, larger than Earth's, and its orbital period is 9.67 days.
