R Andromedae (R And) is a Mira-type variable star in the constellation Andromeda. Its spectral class is type S, because it shows absorption bands of zirconium monoxide in its spectrum. It was among the stars found by Paul Merrill to show absorption lines of the unstable element technetium,^[3] establishing that nucleosynthesis must be occurring in stars.
