Wolf 359	Leo	editor.cs	2022-01-21 17:00:00	skybber	2022-02-07 15:42:02.875256

a faint star with a brightness of 13.7mag, named in honour of Max Wolf, working at Heidelburg University in the early 20th century, who discovered its proper motion. It moves 4.71" across the sky every year. One reason for this apparent movement is its proximity to us. It lies at a distance of just 7.86 light years from the Sun, making it our third closest star after Proxima Centauri and Barnard's Star in Hadonos.
