S Cephei (S Cep), also designated as HD 206362, is a carbon star and Mira-type variable in the constellation Cepheus. Based on the measurement of its annual parallax by the Gaia satellite, the star is approximately ~1,590 ly (~490 pc) away from Earth.
S Cephei is a carbon star of spectral type C7.3e.[9] It is also a Mira-type variable star whose apparent magnitude varies from 6.6 to 12.5 in the form of a pulsation over a period of 484 days.[2] Its variability was discovered by Karl Hencke in 1858.[10]
