It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude is 4.93.
[3] The distance to this star, as estimated from its annual parallax shift of 14.92±0.40 mas,[1] is about 219 light years.
Alves (2000) and Afşar et al. (2012) classify it as a red clump star, which means it is an evolved star at the cool end of the horizontal branch and is generating energy through helium fusion in its core region.
[7][8] It is about five billion years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 4 km/s.
It is radiating around 59 times the Sun's radius from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of about 4,749 K.[3]
