[2] This object is located approximately 229 light years away from the Sun, based on parallax,[1] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +18.5 km/s.

[5] This is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A3Vn,[3] where the 'n' suffix indicates "nebulous" (broadened) lines due to rapid rotation.

It is about 182[8] million years old with a high projected rotational velocity of 201 km/s.

It is radiating 55[6] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,902 K.[8]
