HD 95089 is 447 light-years from the Sun. The NASA Exoplanet Archive lists 2 planets around this G8/K0 IV star; the first was found in 2009 by radial velocity (W. M. Keck Observatory).
Fly there in 3DHD 95089 c takes 4.9 years to go round its star once.

Values are the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s composite parameters. A radius marked estimated comes from a mass–radius relation; a mass marked minimum is M sin i. Planet sizes and colours in the 3D view are renderings: none of these worlds has been photographed as more than a point of light.
For a star of 4,918 K, 14 times as bright as the Sun, the habitable zone, where starlight could keep water liquid on a rocky surface, runs from about 3.66 to 6.64 AU. None of its known planets orbits inside it. The zone says how much starlight arrives, not whether a planet has water or air. The edges follow Kopparapu et al. (2014), as the 3D view draws them.
