Two grade 5 orbits. Left: orbit for HIP 117712 = WDS 23524+7533. Half of the 270 yr orbit has been observed. The components have V magnitudes of 6.34 and 12.11 with spectral types K3 V and M5 V, respectively, and ΣM = 1.59  ±  0.05 M. Right: orbit for HIP 30630 = WDS 06262+1845. The initially reported observation in 1890.9, with no further reports until 1962.9, allows that 80% of the 176 yr orbit has been completed by 2022. The components have V magnitudes of 6.82 and 11.05, with spectral types K3 V and M3 V, respectively, with ΣM = 1.89  ±  0.17 M.
