26 Draconis is a triple
spectroscopic binary that completes an orbit every 76 years. The composite spectral classification of the AB pair is G0V, which decomposes to individual spectral types F9V and K3V.[3] A 1962 study estimated the masses of these two stars as 1.30 and 0.83 times the mass of the Sun, respectively.[7] The stars are considered moderately metal-poor compared to the Sun, which means they have a lower proportion of elements other than hydrogen or helium.[9]
Gliese 685
The third component, GJ 685, is a
common proper motion.[13] The Star GJ 685 has one known planet orbit that was detected by radial velocity. [14]

The
eccentricity of 0.14, taking it as close as 23.1 kly (7.08 kpc) and as far as 30.4 kly (9.32 kpc) from the galactic core. The inclination of this orbit carries the star system as much as 0.75 kly (0.23 kpc) above the plane of the galactic disk.[16] This system may be a member of the Ursa Major moving group.[17]
