Its [[apparent magnitude]] is 8.91, too faint to be visible with the [[naked eye]]. Based on [[parallax]] measurements from the [[Gaia (spacecraft)|Gaia]] spacecraft, it is located at a distance of {{convert|446|ly|pc|abbr=off|lk=on}}.

The system is a member of the [[Scorpius–Centaurus association]], and has an estimated age of 21 million years. The two stellar components are a bit more massive and hotter than the Sun. They take 18.59 days to orbit each other, and have an unusually [[eccentric orbit]] for such a short orbital period.<ref name=Peck2025/> HD 143811 has a debris disk located at 8.5&nbsp;[[astronomical unit]]s, with an estimated temperature of {{convert|140|K|C}},<ref name=Cotten2016/> and is orbited by one known exoplanet, at 63 au.<ref name=Squicciarini2025/>

==Planetary system== In 2025, two independent teams found a planet orbiting the system using the [[direct imaging]] technique. One used the [[Gemini Planet Imager]] and the NIRC-2 camera aboard the [[Keck telescope]],<ref name=Jones2025/> while the other used the [[SPHERE]] instrument aboard the [[Very Large Telescope]] and the Gemini Planet Imager.<ref name=Squicciarini2025/> Additionally, its existence was inferred using [[Methods_of_detecting_exoplanets#Astrometry|astrometry]].<ref name=Squicciarini2025/> The planet, named '''HD 143811 b''', is a [[gas giant]] with 6.1 times the mass of Jupiter ({{jupiter mass|link=y}}),<ref name=Squicciarini2025/> 1.4 to 1.7 times Jupiter's radius ({{jupiter radius|link=y}}),<ref name=Jones2025/> and a temperature of {{Val|1000|30|ul=K|fmt=commas}}. It has a [[circumbinary planet|circumbinary]] orbit, having a [[semi-major axis]] of 63 astronomical units, and an orbital period of roughly 300 years.<ref name=Squicciarini2025/><ref>{{Cite web |last=published |first=Robert Lea |date=2025-12-11 |title=Astronomers discover images of rare Tatooine-like exoplanet with a strange 300-year orbit: 'Exactly how it works is still uncertain' |url=https://www.space.com/astronomy/exoplanets/astronomers-discover-images-of-a-tatooine-like-exoplanet-with-a-bizarre-orbit-hidden-in-10-year-old-data |access-date=2026-03-04 |website=Space |language=en}}</ref>
