Upsilon Piscium is a solitary,[10] white-hued star in the zodiac constellation of Pisces. It is faintly visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of +4.75.[2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 10.59 mas as seen from Earth,[1] it is located about 308 light years from the Sun. The star is drifting further away with a heliocentric radial velocity of +6 km/s.[4]
This is an ordinary A-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of A3 V.[3] It is 461[7] million years old – about 98% of the way through its main sequence lifetime[3] – and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 91 km/s.[3] The star has 2.8[3] times the mass of the Sun, about 2.2[6] times the Sun's radius, and is radiating 117[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9183 K.[7]
