It has an apparent visual magnitude of 6.07,[7] which, according to the Bortle Dark-Sky Scale, means it is faintly visible to the naked eye when viewed from dark suburban skies.
Based upon an annual parallax shift of 9.45±0.09 mas,[5] it is approximately 345 light-years (106 parsecs) distant from the Sun.
The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of around −6 km/s.
This energy is being radiated into outer space at an effective temperature of 10.300 K,[3] giving it the white-hued glow of an A-type star.
It is roughly 23% of the way through its lifetime on the main sequence of core hydrogen burning stars.
