==System== The '''TOI-1452''' star system is 99 light-years away from Earth,<ref name="StellarCatalog">{{Cite web |title=TOI-1452 Star Information |url=https://www.stellarcatalog.com/stars/toi-1452 |website=Stellar Catalog |access-date=2023-09-14}}</ref> located in the constellation of [[Draco_(constellation)|Draco]]. It is a binary pair of dim red dwarf stars separated by only 96 [[Astronomical unit|astronomical units]] (AU). A notable feature of this system is the presence of an exoplanet around one of the stars, designated as TOI-1452 b.<ref name="OceanWorld">{{Cite web |title=Discovery of Ocean World with the CFHT |url=https://www.cfht.hawaii.edu/en/news/OceanWorld/ |website=Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope |access-date=2023-09-14}}</ref> It is two M4 dwarf stars that were observed by [[Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite|TESS]] as a priority, since they are on the [[cool dwarf list]], a list of high-priority orange-red and red dwarf stars, that was uploaded to TESS.
