It is invisible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +9.33.
[2] The star is located at a distance of 148 light-years (45 parsecs) from the Sun based on parallax, but is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −18 km/s.
[4] The age of the star is poorly constrained, but it is spinning slowly with a period of around 30 days.
The star is radiating 39%[5] of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,101 K.[4] From 1998 to 2012, the star was under observance from the CORALIE echelle spectrograph at La Silla Observatory.
In 2012, a long-period, wide-orbiting exoplanet was deduced by radial velocity variations.
