It is either a yellow-white or yellow dwarf (the line is arbitrary and the colour difference is only from classification, not real), slightly brighter and more massive than the Sun.

Due to its distance, about 126 light years, it is too dim to be visible with unaided eye; with binoculars it is an easy target.

[4] This exoplanet is "a gas giant smaller than Jupiter that screams around its primary [star] in 11 days at only 0.1 AU."
