This is an aging, massive bright giant star with a stellar classification of A5 II.[3] It is an estimated 30 million years old with 8.8 times the mass of the Sun.[4] Having exhausted the supply of hydrogen at its core, it has expanded to around 33[1] times the radius of the Sun. The star is radiating 3,287[1] times the Sun's luminosity from its enlarged photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,595 K.[1]
