With an apparent visual magnitude of 5.24,[2] it is faintly visible to the naked eye on a dark night.
The distance to this star, based upon an annual parallax shift of 16.86 mas,[1] is about 193 light years.
[4] This is an F-type subgiant star with a stellar classification of F0 IV.
[3] However, Malaroda (1975) gave a classification of F2 III,[11] which would indicate a more evolved giant star.
[5] It is radiating 23[7] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,166 K.[8]
