[2] This object is drifting further away from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of +6 km/s.
[2] This is an aging red giant[4] star with a stellar classification of K4 III,[5] having exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core then expanded to 54[1] times the Sun's radius.
It is a suspected variable of unknown type, with a visual magnitude that has been measured ranging from 4.99 down to 5.06.
[3] The star is radiating 708[1] times the luminosity of the Sun from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,041 K.[1]
