24 Cancri (abbreviated to 24 Cnc) is a triple star system in the constellation Cancer. The system is located about 226 light-years (69 parsecs) away, based on its parallax. The system has a combined apparent magnitude of 6.5,[8] and the two components A and B are separated by 5.7.[9]

The primary component in the star system is designated 24 Cancri A. It is a F-type main sequence star.

The secondary component, designated 24 Cancri B, is also a F-type main-sequence star and is itself a binary with an orbital period of about 22 years.[7] The stars are identical, with apparent magnitudes of 8.6 and masses of 1.1 M, and they are separated by 0.15″.[9]
