14 Vulpeculae is a single,[8] yellow-white hued star in the northern constellationofVulpecula and proximate to the Dumbbell Nebula (M 27) on the celestial sphere, although actually much closer to the Earth.[9] It is a dim star that is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.68.[2] The distance to 14 Vul, as determined from its annual parallax shiftof18.7753±0.1714,[1] is around 174 light years. It is moving nearer with a heliocentric radial velocity of about −38 km/s,[4] and will make its closest approach in a million years when comes to within about 62 ly (19.04 pc).[2]
This is an F-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of F1 Vn,[3] where the 'n' notation indicates nebulous lines due to rapid rotation. At the estimated age of 1.7[5] billion years old, it is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 150[6] km/s and has sub-solar metallicity.[4] The star has 1.5[5] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 11[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of about 6,938 K.[5]
