It is too faint to be viewed with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 7.56.
[2] The star is located at a distance of 59.7 light years from the Sun based on parallax,[1] and is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +9.3 km/s.
[3] It has a modest level of chromospheric activity,[5] and is rotating with a period of 38.6 days.
It is radiating 32% of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,980 K.[5] In August 2009, this star was found to have a planet via the radial velocity method.
A relatively high deviation on the model fit suggests there may be an additional planetary companion in a close, perturbing orbit of the star.
