Simulation of the orbital configuration of the Wolf 1061 system. Wolf 1061 is an inactive red dwarf, small and cold from the Sun located 14 light years away from us. The orbits of planets b, c and d have a duration of 4.9, 17.9 and 67.2 days. In the simulation it is seen that the orbits of the planets are on one plane. The habitable zone around the star is marked in green - the part where it is too hot is marked in red and the cold part in blue.
