Draco (constellation) dwarf stars are 170 light-years from Earth and are of magnitude 5.7 and 6.1. R Draconis is a red Mira-type variable star with a period of about 8 months. Its average minimum magnitude is approximately 12.4, and its average maximum magnitude is approximately 7.6. It was discovered to be a variable star by Hans Geelmuyden in 1876. The constellation contains the star recently named Kepler-10, which has been confirmed to be orbited by Kepler-10b, the smallest rocky Earth-sized planet yet detected outside of the Solar System. One of deep-sky objects in Draco is the Cat's Eye Nebula (NGC 6543), a
