The star 55 Cancri was one of the first known exoplanet hosts and each of the planets in this system is remarkable. Planets b and c are in a near 1:3 resonance. Planet d has a 14.5 year orbit, and is one of the longest known orbital periods for a gas giant planet. Planet e has a mass of 8 M? and transits this bright star, providing a unique case for modeling of the interior structure and atmospheric composition of an exoplanet. Planet f resides in the habitable zone of the star. If the planets are approximately co-planar, then by virtue of having one transiting planet, this is a system where the Doppler technique has essentially measured the true mass of the planets, rather than just Msin i. The unfolding history of planet discovery for this system provides a good example of the challenges and importance of understanding the star to understand the planets.
