The star is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of, and may come as close as in around 3.5 million years.
The visible component is an A-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of A1 V. It has 3.25 times the mass of the Sun and about twice the Sun's radius. The projected rotational velocity is relatively low at 23 km/s. The star is radiating 214 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,908 K.
