Struve 2398 is a binary star system in the constellation Draco. Both stars are red dwarfs and both display variability common to flare stars. The orbital period for the pair is about 408 years, and the eccentricity of the orbit is 0.53. In astronomy, an epoch is a moment in time for which celestial coordinates or orbital elements are specified. ...
