Description (Specifications)[edit]

Fomalhaut's primary (Fomalhaut A) is a blue-white main sequence star, with a yellow-orange main sequence companion star (Fomalhaut B, also known as TW Piscis Austrini). A second very far companion of spectral type M4 V, Fomalhaut C (also known as LP 876-10) is also associated with the system.

  • The system contains two gas giants as well as the the mainworld, Fomalhaut Prime, and 10 other worlds -- including a captured rogue planet that revolves around the primary star in a highly eccentric orbit.
Fomalhaut has three stars in the star system.
