NGTS-3 is a star system located in the southern constellation Columba.
With an apparent magnitude of 14.67, it requires a powerful telescope to observe.
The system is located approximately 2,480 light years away, based on parallax measurement, and is receding with a radial velocity of 8.57 km/s.
It radiates at 72% of the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,600 K, which gives it the typical yellow hue characteristic of a G-type star.
In 2018, the NGTS survey discovered an inflated hot Jupiter orbiting NGTS-3A despite the components being visually unresolved.
