Gliese 674 (Gliese–Jahreiß 674) is a pre-main-sequencered dwarf approximately 15 light years away in the southern constellation of Ara.
On January 7, 2007, Bonfils used the HARPS spectrograph in ESO and found an intermediate mass planet orbiting close to the red dwarf star in an unusually eccentric orbit.
