Searching for Habitable Terrestrial Planets about the plethora of Galactic Red Dwarf Stars near our Sun…
What the Targets are all about for GEMSS…
Simbad, OKLO, Vizie-R selection of red dwarfs based on: Metallicity Fe/H = or > 0 higher is better Limiting Magnitude v ~10.5, some ~ 11, brighter in I or R Position within 45 degrees of zenith at USNO-DC near 2300 Local June – August, based on ~2100+ sunset.
