HD 75898 is an 8th magnitude star approximately 255 light-years away in the constellation Lynx.
The star is 28% more massive, 60% larger, and 3 times as luminous as the Sun.
[2] In 2019 the HD 75898 system was chosen as part of the NameExoWorlds campaign organised by the International Astronomical Union, which assigned each country a star and planet to be named.
The winning proposal named the star Stribor, after the god of winds in Slavic mythology, and the planet b Veles, after a deity of earth, water and the underworld in Slavic mythology.
Later additional monitoring however indicated that this long-period signal was likely a result of long-term magnetic activity on the parent star.
