This object is an M-type giant star, with its stellar classification being M2.5III.[2][6] It has left the main sequence after exhausting its core hydrogen and expanded to around 80 R☉. The star is radiating about 1200[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere, at an effective temperature of 3726 K.[1]
