Psi1 Draconis1 Dra, ψ1 Draconis) is a star in the constellation Draco. It also has the traditional name Dsiban, from the Arabic Adh-Dhi'ban, meaning "The two wolves" or "The two jackals". The secondary component of the binary system is known to host an exoplanet.

In Chinese astronomy, Dsiban is called 女史, Pinyin: Nǚshǐ, meaning Female Protocol, because this star is marking itself and stand alone in Female Protocol asterism, Purple Forbidden enclosure (see : Chinese constellation).[1] 女史 (Nǚshǐ) westernized into Niu She by R.H. Allen, with the meaning is "the Palace Governess", or "a Literary Woman" [2]

Explanet

A Jupiter like exoplanet was discovered in 2015 around the secondary star of the system.[3]
