GJ 1245 (Gliese 1245) is a double star with components G 208-44 and G 208-45, located 15.2 light-years (4.7 parsecs) away in the constellation Cygnus. G 208-44 is itself a closer double star made up of two red dwarfs, while G 208-45 is also a red dwarf. GJ 1245 is the 43rd closest stellar system to the Solar System.[14] GJ 1245 A and B are both active flare stars,[15] and the pair are collectively designated V1581 Cygni.[16]

The largest of the three stars, GJ 1245 A (G 208-44 A) is only 12% the Sun's mass.[5] Of the other two stars, GJ 1245 C (G 208-44 B), is closest to star A at 2 AU away;[17] it is 8% of the Sun's mass.[5] The third star, GJ 1245 B (G 208-45), is 27 AU away from star A,[17] and is estimated to complete an orbit every 279 years.[18] It is slightly smaller and less luminous than GJ 1245 A.[9]
