According to the Starflight Handbook, there are three G
type stars between 19 and 21 light years away from Earth.
Nu Cassiopeia is a G0 in a double star system 19.2 ly
away, 82 Eridani is a G5 20.3 ly away, and Beta Hydri is
a G1 20.5 ly away. Jockaira could be one of those three
-- probably 82 Eri, based on the distance. 82 Eri is
listed with another number in the book, 20794. It has
right ascension 3:17, and declination -43 degrees, 16
minutes. The table has no figures for its luminosity,
mass, or radius.
There are also 22 M types in that range, and a DK, whatever
that is. I don't think it's the one DK type star, because
I suspect it's one of those weird unstable stars...
Unfortunately, the table in the Handbook only covers
the 100 stars out to 21 ly, so I don't know where Little
People's might be.
