Uma estrela anã laranja é uma estrela que tem classe espectral K e luminosidade V. Sua expectativa de vida está entre 15 a 30 bilhões de anos (comparando o Sol, com 10 bilhões de anos). Está entre classes espectrais G (como o Sol) e M (como Próxima Centauri). Com massa 0,5 e 0,8 a massa do Sol e temperatura superficial entre 3.900 e 5.200 K. Essas estrelas da classe espectral K correspondem a 12,1% das estrelas próximas do Sol,e têm zonas habitáveis (regiões onde água líquida pode existir em planetas) bem mais seguras (tanto quanto a do Sol) que aquelas que se apresentam nas estrelas anãs-vermelhas menores, pois as anãs-vermelhas são mais instáveis quando jovens, produzindo mais tempestades estelares que poderiam destruir qualquer tipo de vida. Exemplos de anãs laranjas: 61 Cygni, Alfa Centauri B e Epsilon Indi.
