The
star appears to have a dim optical stellar companion, possibly a red dwarf of
13th magnitude that is seen in telescopes but is probably not actually bound by gravity to Tau Ceti itself.
The cluster is 15 ′; in diameter and contains 120
stars, but in an 8 - inch telescope you can only see about 10 to 12
stars of the 12th and
13th magnitude.
