Velocity

Based on recent parallax measurements from the Gaia spacecraft, HD 72337 is currently located at a distance of 287 light years. [1] The object made its closest approach 1.914 million years ago when it was 234 light years distant. [6] At that distance, it brightened slightly to an apparent magnitude of 5.13. [6] Currently, HR 3370 is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 10.7  km/s . [5]

Properties

The stellar classification of HD 72337 is A0 V, [3] indicating that it is an ordinary A-type main-sequence star. It has 2.25 times the radius of the Sun [8] and a mass of 2.51  M☉ . [7] It radiates at 42.5 times the luminosity of the Sun [9] from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,251  K . [11] Like many hot stars, HD 72337 rotates rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 149 km/s, and is estimated to be 265 million years old. [10]
