WZ Sagittae (WZ Sge) is a cataclysmic dwarf nova star system in the Sagitta constellation. it consists of a white dwarf primary being orbited by a low mass companion. The white dwarf is about 0.85 solar masses while the companion is only 0.08 solar masses. This implies that the companion is a spectral class L2 star although this has yet to be confirmed.
