WASP-37 is a yellow main sequence star in the constellation of Virgo.

Star characteristics

WASP-37 has a low metallicity of just 40% of solar, [5] and is likely older than Sun. [2] WASP-37 does not have noticeable flare activity. [6]

Planetary system

The " Hot Jupiter" class planet WASP-37b was discovered around WASP-37 in 2010. [5] The study in 2018 has found the stability of orbits in habitable zone of WASP-37 is not significantly affected by WASP-37b planet. [7]
