[14] With a combined apparent visual magnitude of +6, it is near the limit of stars that can be seen with the naked eye.

Based upon an annual parallax shift of 22.15 mas as seen from Earth,[15] it is located roughly 147 light years from the Sun.

[16] The primary, component A,[17] is an F-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of F3V.

[9] It forms a double star with a magnitude 8.85 companion,[17] which is located at an angular separation of 11.58 arc seconds along a position angle of 331.1°, as of 2011.

[18] A fainter star separated by nearly 3′ was also listed as a companion by Struve,[17] again just an accidental optical association.
