SIMBAD data

HD 181295 is a star located in the southern constellation Telescopium. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.42, [2] placing it near the limit of naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions. The object is located relatively close at a distance of approximately 252 light-years based on Gaia DR3 parallax measurements, [1] and it is currently drifting closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −35.7  km/s . [6] At its current distance, HD 181295's brightness is diminished by 0.22 magnitudes [14] due to interstellar extinction and it has an absolute magnitude +2.14. [5]

Proper motion variations from this star was first detected in a 2005 Hipparcos proper motion survey. [15] These variations indicated the presence of an unseen companion tugging on the star. As of the follow up survey published in 2006, it is considered a probable astrometric binary with a 97% chance. [16]

The visible component has a stellar classification of F0 V, [4] indicating that it is an ordinary F-type main-sequence star that is generating energy via hydrogen fusion at its core. It has 1.74 times the mass of the Sun [7] and 2.35 times the radius of the Sun. [8] It radiates 13.3 times the luminosity of the Sun [1] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,850  K , [8] giving it the typical yellowish-white of a F-type star. At the age of 1.41 billion years, [7] HD 181295A is a rather evolved star for its class, having completed 77.3% of its main sequence lifetime. [3] The star has an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = −0.27 [10] and it spins modestly with a projected rotational velocity of 56.9  km/s within 2.7 days. [11]
