This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, yellow-white hued star with an [[apparent visual magnitude]] of 4.78.<ref name=luck/> [[Radial velocity]] measurements indicate it is moving closer to the Sun at the rate of −12.5&nbsp;km/s.<ref name=Gontcharov2006/>

This star has a [[stellar classification]] of F7Ib,<ref name=leonid/> matching an [[F-type star|F-type]] [[supergiant]]. It is approximately 33 million years old with 8.2 times the [[mass of the Sun]]<ref name=leonid/> and about 102 times the [[Sun's radius]]. The star is radiating 12,700 times the [[Sun's luminosity]] from its [[photosphere]]<ref name=DR2/> at an [[effective temperature]] of 6,151&nbsp;K.<ref name=kovtyukh/>
