 Wolf 424 AB
Wolf 424 A and B are not visible to the naked eye, either combined or individually, but the smaller companion star may be one of the most active (UV-Ceti type) Flare Stars -- Star B is designated FL Virginis -- known (Thomas J.
The stars were discovered by Max (Maximilian Franz Joseph Cornelius) Wolf (1863-1932), a pioneer of astrophotography who discovered hundreds of variable stars and asteroids, and about 5,000 nebulae by analyzing photographic plates and developing the "dry plate" in 1880 and the "blink comparator" in 1900 with the Carl Zeiss optics company in Jena, Germany.
Subsequently, new measurements of the relative positions of the components of Wolf 424 AB (made with the Fine Guidance Sensors of the Hubble Space Telescope in 1996), however, indicated that both are actually low-mass red dwarf stars (Torres et al, 1999).
