This is a massive supergiant star with a stellar classification of K5-M1Iab-Ib.[3] It is a slow irregular variable of the LC type, with its brightness varying in magnitude by 0.44.[4] The star is more than 14[7] times as massive as the Sun and is blazing with 63,579[9] times the Sun's luminosity. This energy is being radiated into outer space from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 3,750 K,[10] giving it the orange-red hue of a cool M-type star.
