HIP 85605 is a star in the

optical double
. (HIP 85605 is 1,790 ± 30 light years away, and HIP 85607 is 1,323 ± 13 light years away)

The original

mas, which would place it 16.1 light-years from the Solar System.[1] In 2007, van Leeuwen revised the number to 147 mas, or 22.2 light-years.[1] With a parallax of 147 mas (0.147 arcseconds), HIP 85605 is unlikely to be one of the 100 closest star systems to the Sun.[4] In 2014, it was estimated that HIP 85605 could approach to about 0.13 to 0.65 light-years (0.04 to 0.2 pc) from the Sun within 240,000 to 470,000 years, assuming the then-known parallax and distance measurements to the object were correct.[2][5][6] In that case its gravitational influence could have disrupted the orbits of comets in the Oort cloud and caused some of them to enter the inner Solar System
.

With the release of Gaia DR2, it was determined that HIP 85605 is actually a much more distant 1790 ± 30 light-years away, and as such will not be passing remotely close to the Sun at any point in time.
