[2] The distance to this star can be estimated from its annual parallax shift of 7.9700±0.0674,[1] which yields a separation of roughly 409 light years.
[4] This is an evolved giant star with a stellar classification of G8III,[2] having exhausted the hydrogen at its core and moved off the main sequence.
It is a red clump giant, indicating it is presently on the horizontal branch and is generating energy through helium fusion in its core region.
[5] 24 Vulpeculae is about 251[2] million years old and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 5.02 km/s.
[3] It has 3.41 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 191 times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,981 K.[2] This is the probable (99.4% chance) source of X-ray emission coming from these coordinates.
