HD 193556 (HR 7778) is a solitary star in the equatorial constellation Delphinus. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.17, [3] making it visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. Parallax measurements place the object at a distance of 467 light years [2] and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 11.7  km/s . [6]

HD 193556 has a stellar classification of G8 III, [4] indicating that it is a red giant. It has 2.65 times the mass of the Sun and is currently 490 million years old, [7] having expanded to 11.33 times the radius of the Sun. [8] It shines with a luminosity of 102  L [9] from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,104  K , [10] giving it a yellow glow. HD 193556 has an iron abundance around solar level [10] and spins leisurely with a poorly constrained projected rotational velocity of 1.5  km/s . [11]
