HD 125442 is a single[9] star in the southern constellationofLupus. Its apparent visual magnitude is 4.78,[2] which can be seen with the naked eye. The distance to HD 125442, as determined from its annual parallax shiftof22.1 mas,[1] is 147 light years.
This is an F-type subgiant star with a stellar classification of F0 IV,[3] having, at the age of 614[7] million years, used up the hydrogen at its core and begun the process of evolving into a giant star. It has 1.49[7] times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 19[2] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,344 K.[7] The star displays a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 148 km/s.[6]
