29 Vulpeculae is a suspected astrometric binary star system in the northern constellation Vulpecula. It is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued point of light with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.82.[2] The system lies approximately 209 light years away from the Sun based on parallax,[1] and is a member of the IC 2391 supercluster.[8] It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −17 km/s.[4]
Radial velocity measurements from High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher with an amplitude of 4 km/s indicate that it is a spectroscopic binary of unknown period.[9] The visible component is an A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A0V,[3] and has some slight abundance anomalies that resemble a weak Am star.[10] It is catalogued as a shell star, showing spectral features of a cooler circumstellar jacket of gas,[11] and may be a proto-shell star.[10] The star is an estimated 254[6] million years old with a relatively low projected rotational velocity of 52 km/s.[3] It has 2.67[3] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 71[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,507 K.[6]
