HD 88809 is a star located in the southern constellation Antlia. With an apparent magnitude of 5.89[2] it is barely visible to the naked eye under ideal conditions. The star is located at a distance of around 451 light years[1] but is drifting away at a heliocentric radial velocity of almost 20 km/s.[1]
HD 88809 has a classification of K1 III[3] which indicates that it is an evolved early K-type giant star that has exhausted hydrogen at its core and left the main sequence. It has an angular diameter of 1.15 mas,[10] which yields a diameter of 17.07[7] times that of the Sun at its estimated distance. At present HD 88809 has 129%[6] the mass of the Sun and shines with a luminosity approximately 117[6] times that of the Sun and has a surface temperature of 4,410 K,[6] which gives it an orange glow of a K-type star. HD 88809 has a faint 13th magnitude companion located approximately 4.9″ away.[5]
