HD 7977 (also designated as TYC 4034-1077-1 or USNO-A2 1500-01356484) is a G-type main-sequence star located in the constellation of Cassiopeia, around 246.9 light-years away from Earth. HD 7977 is notable for its close flyby of the Solar System 2.8 million years ago. [4] Its flyby may have taken it close enough to the Sun that it penetrated deep into the Oort Cloud and disturbed the population of Oort Cloud bodies and long-period comets there. [5] Its mass is equivalent to 1.07 times the Sun's mass.[6]
