ric ▁binary ▁star ▁system ▁in ▁the ▁northern ▁const ell ation ▁V ul pe cul a . ▁It ▁is ▁visible ▁to ▁the ▁n aked ▁eye ▁as ▁a ▁faint , ▁white - h ued ▁point ▁of ▁light ▁with ▁an ▁apparent ▁visual ▁magnitude ▁of ▁ 4 . 8 2 . ▁The ▁system ▁lies ▁approximately ▁ 2 0 9   light ▁years ▁away ▁from ▁the ▁Sun ▁based ▁on ▁par alla x , ▁and ▁is ▁a ▁member ▁of ▁the ▁IC ▁ 2 3 9 1 ▁super cluster . ▁It ▁is ▁moving ▁closer ▁to ▁the ▁Earth ▁with ▁a ▁hel i oc ent ric ▁radial ▁velocity ▁of ▁− 1 7   km / s . ▁ ▁Rad ial ▁velocity ▁measurements ▁from ▁High ▁Acc ur acy ▁Rad ial ▁Vel ocity ▁Planet ▁Search er ▁with ▁an ▁amplitude ▁of ▁ 4   km / s ▁indicate ▁that ▁it ▁is ▁a ▁spect ro scop ic ▁binary ▁of ▁unknown ▁period . ▁The ▁visible ▁component ▁is ▁an ▁A - type ▁main - sequence ▁star ▁with ▁a ▁stell ar ▁classification ▁of ▁A 0 V , ▁and ▁has ▁some ▁slight ▁abund ance ▁anom al ies ▁that ▁res emble ▁a ▁weak ▁Am ▁star . ▁It ▁is ▁catalog ued ▁as ▁a ▁shell ▁star , ▁showing ▁spectral ▁features ▁of ▁a ▁cool er ▁circum stell ar ▁jack et ▁of ▁gas , ▁and ▁may ▁be ▁a ▁proto - shell ▁star . ▁The ▁star ▁is ▁an ▁estimated ▁ 2 5 4   mill ion ▁years ▁old ▁with ▁a ▁relatively ▁low ▁project ed ▁rot ational ▁velocity ▁of ▁ 5 2   km / s .
