28 Vulpeculae is a single[9] star in the northern constellationofVulpecula. It lies approximately 560 light years away and is visible to the naked eye as a faint, blue-white hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.047.[2] The star is moving closer to the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of −23 km/s, and may come as close as 198 light-years in 5.9 million years.[5]

This is a subgiant star with a spectral class of B5 IV,[3] indicating a hot massive star that has started to evolve away from the main sequence after exhausting it core hydrogen. It has been included in a list of the least variable stars observed with the Hipparcos satellite; its brightness varied by no more than 0.0005 magnitudes in the Hipparcos passband.[10] The star has five[2] times the mass of the Sun and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 285 km/s.[7] It is radiating 713 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 15,200 K.[2]
