GJ 887 is a cool M-dwarf (about 0.49 solar masses, 3,688 K, 0.47 solar radii), 3.3 light-years from Earth. GJ 887 e is a 1.5-Earth-mass planet, with an orbital period of 4.4 days, at 0.042 AU from its star, and an equilibrium temperature near 544 K, discovered in 2026 via radial velocity. GJ 887 b is a 3.9-Earth-mass planet, with an orbital period of 9.3 days, at 0.068 AU from its star, and an equilibrium temperature near 426 K, on an eccentric orbit (e ≈ 0.14), discovered in 2020 via radial velocity.
