HD 20781 is a star which is part of a wide binary system with HD 20782. The companion star has a very large angular separation of 252 arcsec, corresponding to 9080 AU at the distance of HD 20782. Both stars possess their own planetary systems in S type orbits. This is the first time that planets have been found in both components of a wide binary system. The HD 20781 do not have a noticeable starspot activity.

Planetary system

In 2011, a pair of small gas giants was detected by radial velocity method. As is 2017, additional two inner rocky planets are suspected, with periods 5.3 and 13.9 days respectively.
